Question What is the triangular "window guide" thing called?

What is the triangular window guide thing called? I unfortunately lost mine and have to replace it.

I refer to the black thing on the top exterior of the door guiding the window when you close it...

Just phoned a Porsche spares shop and yes, it is a "Thrust Wedge", and for R18.24 (ZAR currency) it's a bargain!

Yes some of the official Porsche names / descriptions are interesting ?? ......Fanfare = horns , Tempomat = cruise control , Tip switch = sunroof switch , suspension / stabilizer= front sway bar drop link , Microswitch = clutch safety switch for cruise control , Cover = plastic splash shield in front of wheel , Bracket= front aluminium bumper , Ventilation element= shroud / rear cover for alternator , Compensating tank = fuel overflow reservior (above the right rear wheel ) , Ornamental exhaust pipe = exhaust tip covers , Silentbloc = transmission rubber mount , Track control arm upper = upper front A-arm , Concave washer lower = lower spring perch , Bellows = steering rack boot , Steering gear = rack and pinion , Van type pump = power steering pump , Oil tank = power steering reservoir , Strut = power steering pump bracket................... What you will find on our website are names descriptions which we hope will allow people to find the part if they do a search based on what it does ....... perhaps the best example of Porsche speak is Hose = just about any hose anywhere on the car !! The store has photo's of thousands of the most commonly needed 928 parts and does allow you to search by part numbers so those who have the "bootleg" PET parts discs should be able to easily find the part reguardless of how "Odd " the name and description. When in doubt simply call us Mark , Tom and I have a total of over 40 years of experience figuring out Porsche speak .
