Default Fan Shroud Air Duct

I recently discovered that my air duct (officially called Fan Shroud Heater Outlet by Pelican Parts) was breaking apart and just very brittle from heat and age apparently. I am not even close to being a mechanic but I actually was able to remove the old and replace with the new part. If anyone sees they have a similar situation you can do it yourself with only a 10mm socket or wrench needed. I bought mine for $54 plus $6 shipping from Pelican Parts. The number for the part is 964-106-403-02. My 993 is a '95 with a build date of 6/94. I believe the part number may be different for a '96-'98 and not sure on a late '95 build. The parts man at Pelican seemed quite familiar so I'm sure he will steer you in the right direction. Hope this post has some value for someone.

That is quite a price spread $54 vs $30. I better shop around next time unless the 964 numbered part is more expensive for some reason??

I am trying to get the right part for my '95 993 cab. Buddy says 964 part fit his '98 993 C2 coupe. Pelican displays a warning they "can't confirm this part (964...) fits my car". The 993 part is 1/2 price for OEM Porsche part than the 964... OEM part. Any late updates on this? Thanks.

Thanks for the info.

Yes, I just hung up with Scott at Pelican Parts. He needed VIN to determine p/n for that part. I needed the 993 prefix part. Even in same M/Y varies depending on engine build apparently. Interesting. I ordered it from PP along with a bunch of other 993 parts. Also got lots of detailed info on my car including DOB, and options I didn't know about. Scott was extremely helpful and to time took ensure all was in stock and correct.

Interesting about your build date. Mine was 5/95 and my engine required the p/n beginning 993 not 964. Good info you posted.
Thanks
