Hi folks,
My next door neighbour friend has recommissioned his owned from new 993 cabriolet, after sitting in his garage unmoved for 15 years.
Unfortunately the hood motor is no longer working and needs to be replaced. Porsche are quoting £900 for this.
Any tips or recommendations for an after market supplier at more affordable costs would be appreciated.
Many thanks
Rick

I don't have a cheap source but could they not be rebuilt? He will also need to look at the side drive mechanisms that the motors connect to. They are also very expensive. He should check them for movement to ensure that when he connects the motors they don't get spoilt. I had mine replaced by OPC Q8 15 years ago when they weren't soo expensive. After 15 years of lying idle all the parts for the top will need a good checking over.
