Porsche 987 part number: 98733104302 and 98733104303
is equal to TRW JTC1316, EAN number 3322937921805

Porsche 986 part number: 98633104307, 98633104306, 98633104305, 98633104304
is equal to TRW JTC1186, EAN Number 3322937753246

The 987 part seems to be a little cheaper than the 986 TRW part. Around 85 euro each.

Smallblock,

Thanks for the equivalent part numbers from TRW. These are $110 (986) and $125 (987) on Amazon with free prime shipping.

for me

part number 98733104302

shows $193.99 each on Amazon

Search using the TRW part numbers that Smallblock provided.




Amazon also confirms this for the 986/TRW JTC1186 part:

That is a really good price, I am replacing both mine this winter

BTW I have been told the 987 is an exact fit and much tougher for our 986 cars

I guess everybody is getting these as both part numbers are out of stock now...

I noticed they were out of stock, once I actually placed the order. I prefer amazon at that price ($122 each for TRW1316) so I don't mind waiting. I'll share once they are back in stock and ship out.

Just got shipment notification 12/10, originally purchased on 11/28.

So wait... when I look up JTC1316 (987 part) on Amazon, it says it won't fit my 2003 Boxster S. I can safely ignore that and assume it's a by-the-book warning and not actual fitment?

According to some on the forum, for the backs at least, you can use the 987 part, which is (according to those same folks) is a superior part. I actually ordered both of the out of stock amazon versions (986 and 987), and the jtc1316/987 is what came in stock and shipped so I will be putting them on.

I will report back but it might be a while...

Awaiting your report on this

Actually I was just checking my Amazon and *both* the 986 and 987 came in stock and got shipped... my plan was to cancel one after the other one shipped.. They are both supposed to be here by tomorrow, so I can take some pictures post and see if we can figure out the differences...
