Found the targa front top seal at Mittelmotor. I ordered it 4-6 weeks ago, but it was on backorder until last week. $250.60 shipped, to Tennessee. It was not labeled with a Porsche part sticker, so I'm not sure if it's OEM or repro. Quality appears very good.

Pondering if I should order one from them or wait and see if the local vendors get them. Last time I waited they disappeared. |

Go for it...if they have them, buy them.....nothing else seems to be coming thru.
Or You could wait until Aaron installs it and finds out if it fits correctly... |

I thought the elusive seal was the rear targa seal with the felt and costs 400 + dollars? $250.00 for the winshield seal sounds like a OEM price. |

Don't wait for me to install mine. It's not going on until after a paintjob and that won't be for several months.

Dumb question most likely, but how do I tell if I need one?
