Default Cab vs coupe spoiler difference

Hello,

Been researching on what makes the cabriolet wing go 1” higher than the coupe. I’m planning on sending my hydraulics to get rebuilt and was wondering if it is a coding settings, microswitch positioning, or a whole complete different system that makes it go higher. Not interested on eram kit. Don’t like the thinner risers, wire splicing and would like to keep the original system working to keep it as OEM as possible.

Thanks

Rennkit also sells 1" & 2 " risers that can be added to the stock wing to raise the maximum height. The work has already been done, and the risers are the same thickness as the stock ones, so that should make you happy.

Seen those but doesn’t bring the wing all the way down like the cabriolet.

Now that I got a fixed mount, don’t know how I feel about the cabrio height. Got the fixed mount till I get the hydraulic system rebuild.

The cab wing goes approximately 1” higher. Different hydraulic rams. The eRam Kits that go down flush are 2” (coupe only), 3” or 4”. https://rennkit.com/product-info/997turbo/
