Has anyone seen one of the "OEM" Targa Main Seals that are available, to be able to tell me if it is 100% the same as an Original Porsche Seal? Just curious, since Original Seals are available from Porsche, is "OEM" 100% from the same mold/material? It looks like about a $100 price difference, and not sure the Porsche bag is worth that much it they are 100% the same.

Part No.- 91456303910

Thanks in advance for opinions! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

That's good to know. I bought one from 914rubber years ago and it was horrible. You have to trim the chrome to make it fit. It also pulled away from the car when you removed the top.

Yep...I had one from around 4 years ago with the same problem and wound up buying one from AA.

I understand the new ones from 914rubber are MUCH better.
