Hey Butters, your 944 looks really good ! Cool 924 mirrors btw !

Butters944

Thanks, I prefer to call them Turbo Cup mirrors! They are said to be off a 924SE but they don't have manual adjuster arms like they should... maybe they're real turbo cups.

morghen

Lucky you if they are, but the turbo cup mirrors are essentially 924 mirrors without the adjusting mechanism. Nevertheless they look really cool on your car.

Isn't that what he said?

morghen

no, he said he thinks they are not 924 units but 944 cup ones.

What? "They are said to be off a 924SE but they don't have manual adjuster arms like they should... maybe they're real turbo cups."

Where did you get 944 from that?

morghen

turbo cup = porsche 944 turbo cup = a car that had 924 lightweight mirrors

HICKS

"Only difference between the 924 mirrors and the real M637/754 Cup mirrors are the remote cable adjustment on the 924 mirrors. The Cup mirrors don't have the cable, and you need to stick your hand out the window to adjust them.... otherwise identical."

I see now.

Those actually look great, kudos on a good find. Subtle, but with an element of style.

I don't suppose you know where another set might be available?

Butters944

Thanks, I think so too. They definitely look even better in person.
