Diagram Ref No 28
Also referred to as a bonnet release handle, engine lid release handle or cable pull handle, this component provides the manual grip used to operate the relevant lid release cable.
Depending on the vehicle and installation position, the handle allows the driver to release the front luggage compartment lid, rear engine lid or rear hatch.
The handle forms part of a mechanical release system consisting of a pull cable, cable guide, latch and associated mounting components.
When the handle is pulled, the applied force is transferred through the release cable to the corresponding latch mechanism. This disengages the latch and allows the lid to be opened.
Manufactured to Porsche's original equipment specification, the Genuine Porsche handle is intended to maintain the correct operation and appearance of the original release assembly.
Although relatively small, this component plays an important role in providing convenient access to essential areas of the vehicle.
On classic Porsche 911 models, the front luggage compartment houses components such as the fuel tank, spare wheel and other service-related equipment, while the rear engine lid provides access to the engine compartment.
A reliable release handle is therefore important for routine maintenance, vehicle inspections and mechanical servicing.
Over time, the original handle may deteriorate through repeated use, ageing, mechanical stress or excessive pulling force.
Cracks, broken attachment points or damage around the cable connection may prevent the handle from operating the release mechanism correctly.
A damaged handle may feel loose, become difficult to grip or separate from the cable assembly.
Replacing a worn or broken release handle with a Genuine Porsche component helps restore dependable operation of the corresponding lid release system while preserving the original interior appearance.
Ideal for classic Porsche maintenance, bonnet and engine lid repairs, interior refurbishment and restoration projects, this Genuine Porsche Lid Release Cable Handle provides a factory-specified replacement for compatible applications.
What This Product Does:
The lid release cable handle is the manually operated component of the bonnet, engine lid or rear hatch release mechanism.
Its primary function is to allow the driver to pull the release cable and disengage the corresponding latch.
When the handle is pulled, the movement creates tension in the attached cable.
This tension is transmitted to the latch mechanism, allowing the relevant bonnet or lid to be released.
The handle must remain securely connected to the cable and provide sufficient grip for reliable operation.
Its main functions include:
- Operating the release cable: Transfers pulling force from the handle to the mechanical cable.
- Releasing the front bonnet: Allows access to the front luggage compartment on applicable models.
- Releasing the rear engine lid: Provides access to the engine compartment on applicable models.
- Operating the rear hatch release: Performs the corresponding release function on selected Porsche 968 applications.
- Providing a secure grip: Allows the release mechanism to be operated conveniently.
- Supporting reliable latch operation: Helps the cable receive the movement required to disengage the latch.
- Maintaining original functionality: Preserves the factory-designed mechanical release arrangement.
- Reducing unnecessary cable strain: Provides the intended pulling point when the cable and latch operate freely.
- Supporting routine maintenance: Allows access to the relevant vehicle compartment.
- Preserving interior originality: Maintains the appearance and operation of the original Porsche release control.
Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
The lid release handle is subjected to repeated pulling forces during normal vehicle use.
Ageing, mechanical damage or excessive resistance within the release mechanism may cause the handle to deteriorate.
Common symptoms and signs of a worn or damaged release handle include:
- Cracked handle: Visible cracks may develop around the grip or cable attachment area.
- Broken handle: The handle may fracture completely and become unusable.
- Loose or wobbly operation: A damaged attachment may allow excessive movement.
- Handle separating from the cable: The release handle may no longer remain securely connected.
- Difficulty pulling the handle: The grip may be damaged or difficult to operate.
- Handle slipping during operation: A worn connection may prevent force from being transferred reliably.
- Excessive free movement: The handle may move without operating the release cable.
- Damaged mounting points: Cracked or broken retaining features may affect installation.
- Visible deformation: Excessive pulling force may distort the handle.
- Loose retaining hardware: Damaged or missing fixing components may affect handle security.
- Intermittent lid release: The lid may release inconsistently if the handle-to-cable connection is defective.
- Complete failure to release the lid: A broken handle may prevent normal operation.
- Missing handle: The cable may remain exposed without its intended operating grip.
- Visible ageing: Surface deterioration may affect the handle's appearance or condition.
- Damage during servicing: Incorrect removal or excessive force may damage the original component.
Why Replacement Matters:
Replacing a defective release handle helps maintain reliable access to the vehicle's front luggage compartment, engine bay or rear hatch.
A cracked or loose handle may no longer provide sufficient grip or transfer the pulling force required to operate the release cable.
If the handle fails completely, the corresponding lid may become difficult to open using the normal release mechanism.
This can complicate routine maintenance and make it harder to access components requiring inspection or repair.
Installing a Genuine Porsche replacement Lid Release Cable Handle helps to:
- Restore reliable lid release operation: Replace a broken or worn operating handle.
- Maintain convenient compartment access: Allow the relevant bonnet, engine lid or hatch to be opened normally.
- Provide a secure grip: Restore the intended manual pulling point.
- Maintain correct cable operation: Support effective transfer of force to the release cable.
- Replace damaged attachment points: Renew a handle that no longer connects securely.
- Reduce the risk of complete handle failure: Replace cracked or weakened material before it breaks.
- Improve ease of use: Restore normal operation where the defective handle caused difficulty.
- Support routine maintenance: Maintain access for engine, luggage compartment or related vehicle servicing.
- Preserve original interior appearance: Replace an aged or damaged component with a factory-specified part.
- Support bonnet and latch repairs: Provide a replacement handle during release mechanism refurbishment.
- Maintain classic Porsche originality: Preserve the original control arrangement.
- Support long-term reliability: Restore a sound mechanical connection within the release system.
- Maintain Genuine Porsche quality: Use the corresponding original equipment component.
Replacement is particularly recommended when the handle is cracked, broken, loose, missing or unable to operate the cable reliably.
If the release cable or latch is seized or excessively stiff, those components must also be repaired. Replacing the handle alone will not correct excessive resistance elsewhere in the system.

The rain-water shield is protective panel designed to sit beneath the engine-lid grille on early Porsche 911 (1965-73) and all Porsche 912 (1965-69, 1976) models. Its purpose is to catch and divert rainwater or splashed moisture that enters through the grille, preventing it from reaching the engine compartment - particularly the induction stacks (for models using open velocity stacks) or other sensitive components. Installed under the grille.
Fits:
Porsche 911 models with open velocity stacks
Porsche 912 1965 - 1969
Porsche 912 E 1976
Diagram ref no 24
Please note:
The following parts are needed, but not included:
(6) Rain Tray Spacer Tubes, part number 902.512.125.20
(6) Flat Washers, part number 900.025.003.02
(6) Split Lock Washers, part number N.012.005.3
(6) Hexagon Head Bolts, part number N.010.207.17
Over time, old or missing rain-trays expose the engine bay directly to water and moisture. Without a proper shield, rain or wash-water can enter through the grille - risking water ingestion (especially on engines with open intake stacks), corrosion, or damage to metal and rubber parts in the engine compartment. A correctly fitted rain-shield dramatically reduces these risks, preserving engine health and longevity.
When to replace or fit:
• When the original rain tray is cracked, broken or missing after many years.
• If you’re restoring or rebuilding the rear lid or engine-lid grille assembly.
• Before installing a set-up with open velocity stacks or exposed induction components.
• After heavy cleaning or pressure-washing of the car, to ensure proper drainage and water protection.
• When restoring an older 911/912 to as-built spec, to maintain correct water-management safeguards.

- Squeaking or creaking
- Visible corrosion
- Bent or distorted hinge components
- Cracked or damaged mounting areas
- Lid rubbing against surrounding bodywork
If the lid has suffered previous impact damage, the hinge should be inspected even if the damage is not immediately obvious.
Why Replacement Matters:
Replacing a worn, bent or corroded rear boot lid hinge helps restore the correct movement and positioning of the lid.
Replacement can help:
- Restore smooth opening and closing
- Improve rear lid alignment
- Restore consistent panel gaps
- Improve latch engagement
- Reduce unwanted movement
- Prevent the lid rubbing against adjacent panels
- Reduce stress on the opposite hinge
- Protect surrounding paint and bodywork

Diagram ref no 3
Mounted between the vehicle body and the rear boot lid, the hinge provides controlled movement while supporting the weight of the lid. Its precision-formed arms and pivot points ensure consistent operation and correct positioning, even under repeated heat cycles and regular use.
Over time, rear boot lid hinges can wear, bend, or corrode, leading to poor panel alignment, difficulty opening or closing the lid, or uneven load on the opposite hinge. Replacing a worn hinge with an new part restores correct lid operation, protects surrounding bodywork, and preserves factory fit and finish.
When to replace:
• Rear boot lid sits uneven or misaligned
• Lid binds, creaks, or does not open smoothly
• Visible corrosion, fatigue, or hinge deformation
• During body restoration or repainting work
• Replacing a damaged or seized original hinge

This OE Match version provides the perfect balance between factory-correct appearance and performance enhancement, making it ideal for restoration, lightweight builds, or upgraded road cars.
The engine lid protects the engine compartment while allowing airflow through the grille for cooling. The aluminium construction reduces rear-end weight, improving balance and handling characteristics.
Function
• Covers and protects the engine compartment
• Allows airflow for engine cooling
• Reduces vehicle weight compared to steel versions
• Improves weight distribution and handling
• Maintains factory styling and fitment

This is particularly beneficial for enthusiasts seeking improved performance or building lightweight, period-correct Porsche models.
When to replace
• Rust or corrosion on original steel lid
• Accident or structural damage
• Poor panel alignment or fitment
• Weight reduction for performance builds
• During restoration or upgrade projects

What Does the Rear Engine Lid Lock Assembly Do?
The rear engine lid lock assembly is responsible for securing the engine lid safely while allowing easy access to the engine compartment.
Its primary functions include:
- Locking the rear engine lid securely in the closed position.
- Preventing accidental opening while driving.
- Maintaining correct alignment between the engine lid and body.
- Providing smooth release when operated.
- Helping reduce vibration and movement of the engine lid.
- Protecting the engine compartment and its contents.
A properly functioning lock assembly is essential for both safety and the correct fit of the rear bodywork.
Why Does the Engine Lid Lock Assembly Fail?
After years of use, the lock mechanism is exposed to moisture, vibration and repeated operation.
Common causes of failure include:
- Wear of the latch mechanism.
- Corrosion affecting moving components.
- Weak or damaged return springs.
- Misalignment caused by previous repairs.
- Dirt and debris restricting movement.
- General wear after decades of service.
A worn lock assembly can result in poor alignment, difficult operation or an engine lid that does not latch securely.
When Should It Be Replaced?
Replacement is recommended when:
- The engine lid fails to latch securely.
- The release mechanism becomes stiff or unreliable.
- The latch shows excessive wear or corrosion.
- The engine lid rattles while driving.
- Completing bodywork or rear panel restoration.
- Restoring the vehicle to factory specification.
- Replacing damaged or incomplete original hardware.
Replacing the complete lock assembly helps restore smooth operation and reliable engine lid security.
