Ok I don;t know the answer to this, but I know someone does.

PET has R and L is that facing the front or the rear of the car for perspective.

So if Front R= Driver vs. rear L =Driver

I would hope it is L=Drive, but not 100% sure. Even though I am of german descent, I am usually backwards.

I was always taught that R & L are relative to when you are sitting in the drivers seat. So drivers side is L and passengers side is R.

thanks, big help, and that is what I thought, just wanted to make sure before I ordered something..

BTW went to porsche dealer today, and they wanted $52 for two bonded rubber spacers that hold the airbox up. they are smoking something.. WOW

When it comes to pricing, Porsche is smoking a lot of stuff all the time

Those silent blocks are readily available on ebay or many oldtimer, biking or RC shops for a couple of bucks.

This is correct but be careful as in some cases it could distinguish between "right hand drive" and "left hand drive" parts.

XR4Tim

When distinguishing between right-hand drive and left-hand drive, it's shown as "RL" or "LL" respectively. A single letter "R" or "L" will always denote right or left side fitment.

depami

Yes, you are correct. Sorry, what was I thinking.

jpitman2

As well as the RR=right hand drive, LL=left, I thought handed items were prefixed 928 for left side, 927 for right side? But no, checking PET, eg front fenders, both start with 928, but end 011.02 for left, 012.02 for right. So the 927 prefix is ONLY for RHD variant parts, and the whole car.

Though I have never bought from these guys, they have a great site and a lot of variety. http://vibrationmounts.com/
Prices have to be way better than the stealership.


As for which side is which, if I were king of the world such things would be referred to by Port and Starboard, which work regardless of RHD or LHD, standing in front or behind the car, etc.

9th digit is odd number for left and even number for right side part. In cases where same part is used on both sides its always odd number. I think this is also true for casting numbers which end with letter R as 11th digit.

Thanks for the 9th digit info, now I understand how it works. Also thanks for the vibramonts, 2.37 vs 52 I can put the $50 as down payment on my high beam lens...
