GUT Posted 4December, 2017 Report Share Posted 4December, 2017 Looking for two 8-pole male connectors for 911 electric seats. The one at the end of this: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Porsche-944-951-S2-968-OEM-Seat-Position-Switch-016/173008311758?hash=item28481955ce:g:6DkAAOSwIFtaIHlK I can't find anyone selling just the connector, either new or secondhand. Would appreciate any leads. Cheers, Luke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANF Posted 4December, 2017 Report Share Posted 4December, 2017 Number 3 and 4? 3 looks NLA? https://www.porscheatlantaperimeterparts.com/products/Porsche/Clip-8-pole/3810591/99965239640.html Try a search for those part numbers in the image?

Peter M Posted 4December, 2017 Report Share Posted 4December, 2017 Adam's right with the housings: 999 652 395 40 and 999 652 396 40 and they are available at Design 911 for a few dollars each: http://www.design911.com/pages/diagramsBrowser.aspx?categoryID=9&diagramID=2187 Sorry can't figure out the pins though but my memory, albeit occasionally faulty, suggests the same pins are also used in the round style plugs (like used in the ignition harness) so you may be able to figure the part numbers by studying the PET electrical section closely or ratting them from other old harnesses. (The pins and sockets are soldered to the wires and not crimped so are re-useable) There seems to be more specific electrical connector info in the 964/993 PETs than the PETs for the earlier models even though the same seat harness connectors were adopted some 20 years earlier. Or call James at Autohaus........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GUT Posted 5December, 2017 Author Report Share Posted 5December, 2017 Update - so it turns out one part is NLA and since I need both, I'm still on the lookout. I think my best bet is a couple of secondhand ones from somewhere... Or I just change both male and female to generic modern connectors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are at least 2 parts not real I was taking the piss, 928 seats work - and actually the Spyder has fully manual adjust seats (forward/rear position only), they are the GT3 Carbon Fibre buckets, no lumbar adjust - real mens seats, for hairdressers...

TwoHeadsTas Posted 5December, 2017 Report Share Posted 5December, 2017 methinks ANF has too much time on his hands. Remember the comment about improvements in productivity of Porsche owners when the Forum was having "issues" a month or so back But yes, excellent detective work Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
