I mentioned sometime back about thinking about getting the NLA rocker panel spacers made. Help is needed to advance this project to reality.
More sample measurements are needed to get the new reproduction part as close as possible if not exactly like original. Tidbit: The headlight bushings & washer(s) prototypes were tested fitted on 10 different assemblies before I approved production. How awesome would it be to help with this project? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) How you can help: Measure with a micrometer the outside dimension <----- | -----> Measure the height with a micrometer Post or PM me the information Let's get this project on the road! Where are the spacers located? See this picture is from one of Pelican's Tech articles.  |

Out of 6 samples I have, the OD came to around 15mm.
Height bounced around and I don't know if I should trust the AutoAtlanta sample I have. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) Does anyone have some numbers? Getting quotes now. |

Thanks Valy. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
I ran out to a car just a few minutes ago to do last minute double checking on measurements. The rear passenger spacer had disintegrated then blew away with all the wind we've been having! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) The ID will be to original Porsche specs if anyone is wondering. Edit-- I'm going to look into the front valence rubber as well. On the list. : ) There is something else I'm going to do as well, but I need find out which tool box I put it in. |
