993 Parts Catalogs, also Seats, Wheels and hard to find electrical Terminations/Plugs

Parts Catalog

Below are URLs to various documents that are useful in researching part numbers wheels & seats. When clicking on the URL a viewer may open a login screen. If so "X"  out of that screen to displaying the document.
To print or download these documents select the print icon that appears on the button bar at the bottom of the document image when gliding your pointer over it. The document will open in a PDF reader where it can be printed or saved to your local computer.

It is not required that you login or have an account to do this.

Rest-Of-World Parts Catalog (ROW). This catalog lists part numbers with illustrations, available in countries outside of the USA. It includes parts for vehicles and options on vehicles that were never offered in the US. Certain of these parts are not listed in the USA catalog or available through North American dealer distribution.

United States Parts Catalog (USA). This catalog includes part numbers with illustrations for vehicles sold into the USA & Canadian markets. In some cases, this is a subset of parts in the ROW catalog.

Both of the above catalogs are great for identifying part numbers, what a part looks like and how a part fits in relationship to related parts in your car.  The catalogs are dated and so do not include supersessions to later part numbers subsequent to the 993s production years. Most internet & all dealers will allow for searches under these original part numbers,  providing superseded part numbers that may have come up after the production years of the 993.

Finding part numbers for wire harness hold down and other clips in the main catalogs above:
If you look at the parts listing for the associated harness diagram in the wire harness section you will usually find various cable ties, clips, used in conjunction with each harness even though they are not called out in the harness drawing.
Some are also listed at the end of the catalog section.
