944online has them


http://www.944online.com/newparts.asp

seems cheaper than buying the stock replacements..

They are on my list as well.

Had to use my PCA certificate to buy another glass, so it wasn't to bad. But I still remember the sick feeling I had when I heard the glass crack while trying to remove it the WRONG way (see sig for the correct way).

Those door handles are a must! they look so good.

Had a fight with the dealer, they so the mirror upgrade kit is a housing upgrade only and does not come with the glass ($125.00 drivers side, $95.00 passenger).

After threatening to get a refund they cut me a deal for $45 per side. Oh well I guess you learn by your mistakes.

The wiring is different but the upgrade kit comes with everything you need to make the change.

I JUST got done installing my 968 door handles this AM at like 7 (was up all night working on the car) with Keiths walkthrough, and I must say what a bitch it was! I also installed the 968 mirrors and rear hatch this week too- car looks pretty sexy with all of the above!
