Not the same thing as NOS. I don't mean that in any way as a commentary as to the quality of 914rubber.com's products, just that by definition their products are not NOS. |

True, and I understand wanting NOS, but sometimes NOS rubber is NLA, expensive if you can find it ... and yes, OLD.
Porsche had resumed manufacturing some parts a few years ago, I think NEW front windshield rubber might still be available for around $250. No more $1000. NOS ones. We have some NOS set aside for my wife's car, but also a lot of stuff from Mark. Let us know what OEM rubber you run across in your quest. |

Sorry this not intended this to be a slight toward mark at 914 rubber. However I would still like to get NOS rubber. Please let me know what you have
For what it's worth, I have purchased a lot of parts from Mark. Mark is a standup guy and I totally appreciate the contribution he has/makes to the community. Regards James |

I wish you well in your hunt. There are a few hoarders that have put parts into the "Batcave" for retrieval at a future date.
You will want to make sure that they have treated the rubber as it will dry out over time and harden. It is sensitive to Ozone and a few other chemicals. It does shrink over time. 35 years can make a size difference, some say glycerine helps. It's out there, just hidden in stashes. It may also help to call out which parts specifically you need. |
