lostinespace Posted August 20, 2020 Report Share Posted August 20, 2020 Well today's issue is a split driver's side window rubber, the one with flocking on it. See https://photos.app.goo.gl/MM2CoRYuAwqRbVVi6 Is Porsche the cheapest for this? Also my frunk/froot/boot switches have dropped down again, I thought I fixed them correctly last time. Oh well.

lostinespace Posted August 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2020 If I have found the right product it is £225 at Design 911! I only want a window seal not a whole new roof. https://photos.app.goo.gl/zdthDi3Ujsqx9t4EA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lostinespace Posted August 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2020 I think it will be repairable, maybe a strip of inner tube glued in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostinespace Posted August 20, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2020 OK it was a bit tight for some of the screws but I have the part out. It seems the plastic is becoming brittle, a couple of bits fell off. Not sure how to fix this tbh, superglue/glue gun/sugru behind? https://photos.app.goo.gl/B8fkksBwhm54k4jF7 https://photos.app.goo.gl/KEqufwb7Bb4ntMm16 https://photos.app.goo.gl/VigiuxvScAykHwSx5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostinespace Posted August 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2020 The answer is gaffer tape. It is hanging down a few mils but acceptable. Phew. The plastic is very brittle, take care with this part everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously, if Gaffer Tape doesn't fix it, that means you haven't used enough Gaffer Tape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iborguk Posted August 21, 2020 Report Share Posted August 21, 2020 Oh and agree it is likely to be cheaper from OPC direct , 10% discount etc...still not a cheap part so entirely understand the fix not replace approach - same reason I re-flocked one...

Oh well. well done on sorting it - I tried this a while back and was a total pain - part seems to be made out of recycled coffee cups - if you bend it at all it cracks. gave up in the end and had OPC fit a new one (tried the design911 part first and broke it trying) credit for fitting it without breaking it - I'm impressed!
