I had the windshield replaced and so they removed the A pillar trim to get to the FM antenna connector.

...and that would make it 996 related, but not a part for the car or a Porsche part - they just used the numbering system.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

11 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I�m thinking somewhere in the A pillar behind the trim. Part number, 996555696, came up empty.

POST 2Original post

If you think it's from the body of the car then this is your catalog: http://www.autoatlanta.com/porsche-p..._911_parts.php Be sure "Body" is selected in the grey toolbar below the model numbers in red.

Indeed it does! Now the million dollar question is the right side of what?

For $1 million I still don't know. You got me digging and it's one of the most frustrating searches I've made for a part and I've spent way too much time looking. Hate is too strong a word, but I'm not your biggest fan right now. You better have a new video coming soon. Obviously it will not be exposed, but to you know if inside the cabin or not?

POST 6Original post

I just had a 2000 coupe striped to the chassis and that part was not on my car. I would guess its a convertible only part. Probably for noise control or impact foam for under a back seat panel.

I�m working on the next video. Just took a break from editing but not fixing. Like I mentioned I couldn�t find it either. I have the Katalog parts list but this part isn�t listed. I had the windshield replaced and so they removed the A pillar trim to get to the FM antenna connector. If I had to guess, it came out of there.

POST 8Original post

I think the windshield guys had a leftover piece from a previous job and left it in your car to drive you crazy... Good luck figuring it out!

POST 9Original post

Are you sure it is not a piece of shipping/packing foam leftover from the windshield replacement? Looks like a corner piece of packing foam....

It�s a possibility but I didn�t observe any foam around the glass. It arrived like any other glass replacement. Stored in a row in the back of the van. I guess I can remove the left trim and see if there�s a matching piece.
