Questions for Model Year '1987'

How do I learn the part number for a driver's side, exterior door handle for a 1987 Porsche 924S. Mine is broken and needs replacement. I ordered a pair of handles from D.... but they didn't fit despite their assurances. I tried the website for Porsche.com/usa/accessorriesandservices/... etc that was recommended in another answer but the website did not load.

924S Speedometer Reading Low

Thursday 07/09/2026 | 1987 | 924S | Other

I'm certainly used to speedometers reading a bit high, but mine reads low by about 10-12mph at freeway speeds. Odometer works fine. Speedo bounces a little at very low speeds but I understand this is common on 924s. Internet research says it could be an issue with the magnetization in the gauge itself but does not provide any insight into how to verify if this is the issue or how to address.

So, the statement "The later cars do not have this particular issue." is not really true, from my experience.
