Default Passenger Door handle needed

Does anyone have an early passenger side exterior door handle they would be willing to sell?

Would a late one (from a 1990 S2) fit? The lock cylinder and the power lock switch might be the only thing that's different....

Sorry all I have are the later Porsche Script handles. They work but the lock cylinder doesn't swap out without a little work. I've seen more broken early handles by far, I've been through the 2 originals in the last 30 months, they both broke at the same pivot tab.

if I could find 2 late handles with keys for the cylinders i would swap both out.

Anyone have either 2 late handles with keys or 1 early handle?

There are a few people with some, give them a bit to get online.

You dont need keys, you just trade the tumblers from the old set to the new set, or pay ~$20 to get them rekey'd by a locksmith.

Though while your at it, you could always get a set of 968 Handles, and put those on instead. :P

If the plan was to keep this car for a while, I would do 968 handles, but I plan on getting a S2 by the end of the summer, then adding a 986 to the fold by next spring, so I don't want to sink a bunch of money into a car that will at most be someone's project when I get rid of it.
