now your talking, lets be nice and keep prices competitive for the 944's. This is what happened when i was in the rx-7 forums for years......a bunch of people trying to get rich off stuff that was virtually worth dollars. and then you have so many other people following the trend. We all need to show a little empathy and just rememberwhat we are dealing with here, a 20-25 year old 944 thats a classic sports car. Its not a bentley!

But we need to buy up all the 944s and sell them for 10k to recreate the market haha

i see you got my point blitz! ya, its crazy when someone thinks that door handles are worth 250 dollars! i mean i know they are rare, exclusive etc, whatever.....you can make those yourself. but skyjacking prices will no doubt decrease the love of these cars. and that is my fear. it seems i always find good deals on parts when i use patience and if i just shop around a bit. But you should have seen the look on my face when i saw that 83-85 tachs where 800! and ones with the shifter light where 1000!!!

I would rather cut my cods off then pay 800-1000 for a factory tach for a 25 yeear old 944! lmao!

944 handles dont have a black insert on them like these vw ones do... some 944 handles actually say porsche in the handle too.

you are mistaken. i pulled these off a 924 myself.

the early 944's had little plastic woodgrain inserts in their black handles. the late cars do not have this. the porsche ones are the rare and expensive script handles.

i can take a picture of the ones on my early if you want.

ok, my mistake, ive never seen a 944 with them

i would put them on ebay or craigslist since most people here are 944 sharks... i buy entire 928's for about the same price you wanted for the handles...
