Voltage Regulator, Need help finding right regulator Options

[ws6]

Help. I have gotten three voltage regulators from the normal Porsche Parts suppliers and none fit. The distance from edge of case to the first spade is .25 inches on my original regulator. The catalogs all show same regulator for 911, 914, and 914-6. The ones I have received vary from .4 from the edge to .65 from the edge all with same PN so will not fit in area to plug into. Anyone know the actual part to buy? My original has numbers on it in this order 0 190 601 006 AD 1/14V. The replacements show up as PN 901 603 206 02 Yes I can rewire, or maybe take both apart and move the guts, but trying to keep original and not have a wire harness to convert to get wires to new regulator. Thank you for your help. Tim

Looks like Hella offers an equivalent for a fraction of the price, $32.33

Pelican Parts has the same Hella regulator for $34. I've never used one, maybe someone here who has can comment. Looking at the comments on PP there seem to be fitting problems, not dissimilar from what you've experienced.

That replacement one you have looks like the cheap auto parts store version, I never had much luck with those, they were barely better than the old mechanical Bosch units (like your old one).

Thank you for your help. The Airhead site shows as: OE Bosch Solid State Version 0192062007. Type 2 Bus w/AL75 or AL108 Alternators, Type 4 69-74. Replaces Bosch 0190600016.

At least they have the Bosche PN listed and it is close as 600 vs. 601.
