I just checked my option codes on my early 1985 and found a code that does not show up on Clark's Garage List. It is 715, does anyone have an idea what it is?
The other option I have on the car is the sunroof, mine however is not metal it is glass and I have tried for months to find replacement gaskets with no luck, even 944Only said they couldn't help, but would love to have the panel.
Thanks for the help.

I'd be willing to bet that your sunroof is actually what's called a Saratoga top. They were an uncommon but popular aftermarket improvement for the 944- just a drop-in replacement for the existing metal roof.

There wasn't a factory equivalent- if you find a glass roof on a 944, it's aftermarket.

Thanks, I have confirmed it is a Saratoga top just trying to find gaskets for it. I have even contacted the company which started to make them again and they were not much help selling me just the gaskets, go figure! 🤔

That's too bad! Pretty sure you said you were already in contact w/ Only944 (i.e. Kyle), but if not, you might see if he'd be willing to share what the places are where he's been able to source gasket material...

I don't know what the option is but found it here: http://944online.com/index.php/944_option_codes

Replacement gaskets for Saratoga sunroofs are long since out of production and there isn't a known replacement available in the aftermarket.

Thanks, I have contacted Kyle, said he wished he could help

Would you mind posting pictures of the Saratoga? I had one on my 911 Targa but haven't seen the 944 version.
