Sunroof seal. Porsche 944 / 968  ›  94456411406

The OE Match Sunroof Seal is a replacement weather seal for the lifting/removable sunroof panel fitted to selected Porsche 944 and 968 models.

• Porsche 944 1986-91
• Porsche 968 1992-95

Positioned around the sunroof panel and roof opening, the seal creates a flexible barrier between the removable roof panel and the surrounding bodywork. Its purpose is to help prevent rainwater, wind, dust and road contamination from entering around the sunroof while also helping the panel sit securely and quietly when closed.

Over time, the original rubber seal can harden, flatten, shrink or crack as a result of age, UV exposure, temperature changes and repeated compression. Once the rubber loses its flexibility, it may no longer conform properly to the sunroof panel, allowing water or wind to pass through gaps.

Replacing an ageing seal helps restore weather protection, reduce wind noise and protect the vehicle's headlining, trim and interior from moisture damage.

What This Product Does:
The sunroof seal forms the weather-resistant interface between the lifting roof panel and the surrounding roof aperture.

Its main functions are to:

• Help prevent rainwater entering around the sunroof.
• Reduce wind noise when the roof panel is closed.
• Keep dust, dirt and road debris out of the roof opening.
• Cushion the panel against the surrounding bodywork.
• Help reduce rattling and vibration.
• Support correct seating of the sunroof panel.
• Protect the cabin and headlining from moisture.
• Maintain the original fit and refinement of the roof assembly.

• Water entering around the sunroof.
• Damp headlining.
• Moisture marks around the roof opening.
• Wet seats or interior trim after rain.
• Increased wind noise.
• Whistling at motorway speeds.
• Sunroof rattling when closed.
• Visible gaps around the roof panel.
• Rubber that feels hard or brittle.
• Cracks in the seal.
• Sections of rubber breaking away.
• Flattened sealing surfaces.
• Shrinkage at joints or corners.
• Seal becoming detached from its mounting surface.
• Uneven roof-panel fit.
• Excessive dirt or water collecting around the aperture.

• Weather resistance.
• Reduced water ingress.
• Lower wind noise.
• Proper sunroof-panel support.
• Reduced rattling.
• Improved cabin comfort.
• Protection of interior materials.
• Correct appearance around the roof opening.

For an older Porsche, replacing aged weather seals is also an important part of long-term preservation.
