Hi CESONI,

Sorry I didn't check the site for the last week or so, I just sent you an email.

The cluster shafts are selling from just this site I havn't posted anywhere else.

Anyone who purchased the shafts Please post any feedback when you get them installed!

Brian2034,

Hey bro I see your e-mail address is brianp@nfld.com. Are you in Newfoundland? I was born at Goose AB, Happy Valley.

Anyway the real reason for the post, can your friend also make the plastic end pieces for the convertible top push rod? Porsche will not sell that screw on plastic socket piece; they only sell the whole arm itself for $75 USD. A local Porsche salvage yard will sell the whole arm plus the stainless ball and adjuster that goes on the motor itself for $50. They told me they always sell out of 'em. Looking for a market? I say make those end pieces and you'll find one.

I'm first in line!

I'm in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. About the plastic end piece, I don't know but I would bet that Porsche hasn't changed the the overall mechanics of the top. It's possible that other model Porsche's have a similar operation with like parts. You can't go by part numbers because the arm might be different but the plastic end may be the same.

Any help on this will help us all when we need to replace the weak link in our convertibles.
