Do you know if these will fit on early 944s or just the later ones?

I've replaced the origonal clips with the same Porsche clips, and if they don't crumble, they still don't do better at holding up the sagging visor.

I'll try the 3 screws and report back.
A different parts department in town (we have 3 VW dealerships in Orlando) just quoted me $12 and $2 for the clip and cover respectively... the part number for the cover is sold in black, but the number should be
"3B0 857 563 B41"... so ending in "B41" instead of "BB41". -The parts guy told me that the last three characters are the color code, so presumably the other colours (beige and grey) should also drop the first 'B'. -He used to work at my local VW place and he knows me too. -I told him what it was really for and he gave his approval.
I wonder if I got quoted wholesale price by accident the first time I called my local dealership...
Hey, PSUice944... -"paging PSUice944"...
-can you get us a definitive answer?
-Anyone else want to yellow-page their local VW dealership and see what the cost and availability of these parts are:
3B0 857 561 BB41
and
3B0 857 563 B41
Cheers!

I just talked to my local guy. The part #'s are correct and they are black. He would cut me a group price if I buy 30 of them
Bracket.... $5.20
Cap......... $.75
Anyone interested in me doing a group buy and mailing them all out? I figure shipping would be less than $1.20 for all 4 pieces.

If people want to add their name here or PM me I'll keep a list going.
I'm in for two sets. With tax and 'estimated shipping' of $1.50 a pair of brackets and caps should be about $14-$14.50. A set (pair) is 2-brackets, 2-caps.
List:
Kuhl951..........2 sets
gregeast........1 set
Mike Markota...2 sets
