Bulletin Number: 91 – 02
ATTENTION: Service Manager/Service Technician
Models Affected: All 911 and 911 turbos
Model Years 1969 through 1989

Wiring Harness Routing:
The positions for three wiring harness holes are center punch marked on new doors (Figure 1) and must be drilled and deburred as necessary compared to the old door before painting the new door.
1 – For electric window lift (20mm diameter)
2 – For outside mirror adjustment (16.5mm diameter)
3 – For radio speakers (12.5mm diameter)
The hole (arrow in Figure 1) must be closed with grommet Part Number 999.703.066.50.

Service Information (cont.): Door Contact Switch for Inside Light Repositioned
During Model Year 1989, hinge pillars were modified. Hinge pillars remain available in both versions.
When installing the new version door on a car with the old version hinge pillar, the door contact switch for the inside light must be positioned 50mm further down.
This requires drilling a new hole, 8.4mm in diameter, 50mm below the old door contact switch hole (Figure
2). Deburr edges of the new hole and treat edges with rust prevention paint. Relocate switch into new hole. Install plug Part Number 911.531.999.00 in old hole.

Important:
Instructions for fitting and welding new door shells, printed in 911 Workshop Manual, Model Years 1965-1971, Volume II, Pages B7 through B13, are still applicable.
