Recently I decided that while my 968 was in the body shop getting a minor scrape fixed, I'd have them replace some failing door window weatherstripping while they were at it.
Looking at the PDF PET at the Porsche classic site, I came to the conclusion the part I needed was "477 837 469 A Sealing strip /LOuter" as seen here: #8
I figured I'd buy four, as I decided to do both my 968 and 924S... I ordered both left and right sides.
However, when I received my part, it was the correct part number, but clearly NOT the outer weatherstripping, but the felt scraper that goes on the door card, on the inside of the window. Apparently, that's made of of two different parts, an inner and an outer rubber strip.
Not even remotely close to this weatherstripping....and much too long.
I also figured I'd look for this weatherstipping as well, along the top and side of the window, but it isn't clear what part number that would be, either.
What part number are those? Anyone know?

when it come to this sort of stuff i go to IAN 944 online.. i put new ones of these on my car and the fit is a pain in the butt. As ed china would say… a lot of fiddling… good luck
I purchased all the door/window seals last year and you received the correct part if the part you want to replace is the lower, outer window seal. When I got mine, the 477 number was superseded to PCG 837 469 A, which I think is a Porsche Classic part. The black metal trim attaches to this item. I have not installed any of these pieces as I only purchased them for future use, but I just now checked the length, and it looks fine.
For the top window seal, which is also the top window guide (which also includes the rear piece... the picture does not match what you get), you want item #4 from below. Item #2 are the seals you already purchased. The P/Ns for #4 are 944 537 079 00 and 080 00. These window guides accept the black metal trim pieces, item #5 in your image. Item #9 in your image is the same L/R and is the inner window seal.
