Default Question about our sun visor

Can anyone confirm for me that the visor is the same on the coupe and the Cabriolet? I’m looking to replace mine. Much obliged!

I don’t know, do you have a picture of yours?

Try downloading the parts catelog E_996_katalog, it's free on line and has all the parts diagrams and numbers. You should be able to find the parts numbers for each model.

FYI, the part numbers are different so I'd presume they are different.

I know one comes with a light and one comes without a light... hopefully that's a little help for you...

My cab has lighted visor mirrors. I thought coupes did too.

I meant to saw that the part numbers are sometimes referring to the ones with and without the lights...

Confirmed with two Porsche dealers that the visors are in fact different.

Correct - side-by-side it's obvious they are different shapes.
