There should be some special colapsable bolts for the screws that the door pull mounts on. You have to drill two holes and then mount the colapsable bolts with a special tool that holds then still. Once they are in - they form a secure mount for the screws for the door pulls.

Thanks. I should have also asked how the pull straps are secured. How about the straps? =)

The pullstraps are mounted to the same place where the original door opener is mounted. All pretty strait forward when you open the door. All this is described on the paper you get with the kit.

I have the door card kit from Appbiz, if I was doing it again I would spend the extra money and have one made up by Southbound Trimmers, the cost differential is substantial but so is the difference in quality. For example, the quality of the door pull straps supplied by Appbiz is poor, I have replaced mine with genuine Porsche RS items.

Yeah. Pullstraps have a hole and a bolt goes through that as well as the hole that is used for the oem latch. Cant remember who but someone told me to dip the end of the straps in glue or something. They will eventually break.
The material used on the straps from porsche are a lot softer.
I got my kit from appbiz throught pelican. I got the kit and cut then out. Search for my post on 993 forum.

The instructions APPBIZ supply are actually quite good and I had no issues when I did mine.

I also think the appbiz kit is more than good enough, but I also replaced the straps with OEM items. But the overall "value for money" is with that extra cost still not beaten by any one else.

Hi Bob, I also purchased your RS America door panels. I'm finally about to install them and can't find the instructions. Would you mind sending me the PDF at markdmurdoch@icloud.com. Thank you!
