Automotion sucks since they were bought by Ecklers

If you notice in the ad it says " Genuine Porsche Part", then later it says "our aftermarket"

Its awesome that these are being reproduced at a reasonable price

I haven't had the bad experience with automotion...
but so what at a reasonable price I can buy something

that was always the crappy thing about AA
they had absolutely the crappiest service and then would charge 3X what they should have....

I'll bet automotion at least sends the right part
and at the price they advertise it for.....

Read more carefully..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) ......it's only the interior of the outer door handle "actuator" repair part.

Several venders sell this repair part, including HPH & Pelican IIRC.

Last I saw there were still the Porsche L & R outer handles (pricey) & repro ones (less pricey, but who knows on quality?) still available, but the interior handles have been NLA for a while AFAIK.

I have a set on my car and it's hard to tell the difference from OEM but I have been happy with them for the price.

Heck $75 for a new door handle is a great price. I didn't know they were available. Happy to see them. I have repaired a few also.

I've had them on my car for about 3 years. Got in on a first buy from my local p-car parts man. They look to be made a little stouter in the areas that are prone to breakage. I'm fully satisfied .

Are there right and left versions? It looks like it is saying right. I searched and couldn't find a left. The pictures appear to be the same like they made the handles for use on either side

Their website has 5 listings for 914 door handles, including 2 that say "Original" in the title and 2 that have "Genuine Porsche" in their description. Prices vary from 74.99 to 279.99 but all of them have the exact same product description. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Curt,

I think that Ron had called Kent a redneck jokingly in post #6
I think Kent was saying: score one for himself
