|
|
I have a 1978 924 with manual windows. The drivers side was missing when I bought it. I came across a pair of nice 944 windows for a decent price but the bracket is not compatible.
Does anyone know how to adapt an auto window to a manual, or should I just keep searching for a manual window with bracket?
Thanks |

I ran into this while swapping from power to manual windows. I ended up pressing out the ball end that goes into the bracket on the manual arm and welding in the ball I pressed out of a power arm.
The pads that press onto the balls are a common wear item, like this https://rennbay.com/944-Window-Regulator-Roller-Repair-Kit.html _________________ 1980 Porsche 931
