We could use the hydraulics for the current wing and mount them to the Taco Wing deck lid in reverse.

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.

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

  • Rennlist: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have a 2000 C2 Cabrio and have located an OEM MK1 Taco Wing the same color as my car. Will the Taco Wing work with the Cabrio or will it interfere with the convertible top? Anyone done this? pics?

POST 2Original post

Where's our resident wing expert (Ed) when we need him???

POST 3Original post

Yes it will interfere with the convertible top clamshell.

POST 4Original post

lets see.... taco on a cab..... hmm... I am fairly certain that will be JUST FINE as long as: you dont want to use your top you dont want to open your engine lid you dont mind us all laughing at it (for years) you like looking silly and went to the school for silly walks yea, its should fit - FINE! I for one would like it and if it was a wide body with a narrow body part, all the better (or visa versa)

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 8962218

So what you are saying Ed, is that I will need to put the top down prior to installation, put a bag over my head and carry an umbrella.

POST 7Original post

YES...or let me handle the flames... I am use to it

POST 8Original post

However, Ed can make it fit! he has an awsome set of tools!

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

If we can make the Taco Wing flip back when the clam shell opens, that would work. We could use the hydraulics for the current wing and mount them to the Taco Wing deck lid in reverse. Ed, what tools do you have for that?

POST 12Original post

well I have a big hammer some duct tape wire cutters CUSS jar full of quarters Beer some ball bearings, 3 in 1 oil and a pile of guase pads

POST 13 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Plus band-aids, I always need band-aids

POST 17Original post

POST 18Original post

This is the cheapest real one I have ever seen: https://rennlist.com/forums/parts-ma...3-decklid.html Drawback is that it has holes from where hood pins were used. I don't think they would be too hard to fill though.

POST 19Original post

Welp, I just realized the taco won't fit on my 996 cab. Time to look for another wing.

POST 20Original post

Look up about six posts. That is what i have on my cab.

POST 21Original post

Can I ask where you got it from? Precision Porsche? Mike Shaw?
