Paul,

Took a look in PET but could not see the bracket listed. Also took a look at the actual item on my 928 and there is no part number stamped on it.

Sounds as though you need a Rob intervention.

no idea what your concern is but if for any reason you do not happen to have make sure you put a sheet of rubber between the positive post and the lid even if/when you do have one. If the post comes into contact with the lid you create an ERW welding machine and it duly welds the lid to the post and then you are well and truly screwed. The battery self knackerates and you cannot get the lid open- ask me how I know?

Yes.




Or you can order the 'Clubsport' M637 option, 911 611 209 00, which is in fact just the '78-80 version of that clamp:

The 928 611 209 02 GRV has a current retail of $68.57, but they are made of stainless steel....
Might be worth getting one from 928 international.

It's the "Spannbuegel" part. Don cha no?

Discovering little details of the 928 like this makes me realize how intensely creative the designers of these cars were. I often find the logic of working on something 928 related well after struggling to figure out how the heck they intended the part to be serviced.

There should be an "928 Archeology 101" class at the school of esoteric trivia somewhere...
