Upper battery cover. Porsche 911 1965-68  ›  90161112120

The OE Match Upper Battery Cover is a replacement upper cover for the battery installation used on early Porsche 911 and 912 models.

• Porsche 911 / 912 - 1965 to 1968

Positioned over the battery within the front luggage compartment battery assembly, the cover provides the correct upper enclosure and protective finishing component around the battery.

It is particularly suitable for classic Porsche restoration projects where the original battery cover is missing, cracked, distorted, deteriorated or has been replaced with an incorrect non-original-style component.

The battery cover works together with the surrounding battery installation, including the lower battery tray or cup and retaining strap, to recreate the original factory-style arrangement.

Although the cover does not secure the battery by itself, it helps protect the upper battery area and provides an important finishing detail within the early 911/912 front luggage compartment.
