Hand brake cable for 914, normally sell for around $40. Factory must make them REALLY SPECIAL.

I just checked the price list and new cost is $172.61 from Porsche. Ouch! Time to replate some good used cables.

Always be sure to check the online dealership prices.

For example Sunset Porsche has it for $139.52.

Sunset seems to always have the cheapest prices of online Porsche dealers but also the most expensive shipping. For instance, put that part in your cart and get a shipping quote.

I just did that and they want $41 for shipping to me and I’m on the east coast. Insane!

When I order from a Porsche dealer online I always get the best total price from Porsche Delaware. Fair shipping and below list prices.

I’m lucky because I drive right by them all the time and pickup in person. Especially good for big parts like window glass and items that come from Germany since there is no extra cost. I can get a single nut or bolt and again, no shipping, tax or handling fee. And since they are a regular Porsche dealer, their waiting area is filled with free snacks and coffee.
