Iv just put a bridge spoiler on my turbo, striped it and reprinted and bonded all the tabs e.c.t

Everything has 951 part number.

Anyway iv got a wiper deleted bung that iv used on a both my S and turbo. But it would bottom out before it would get water tight on the bridge spoiler Hacth. ? I cut a bit off and now it's water tight. The battery in my ventier cailpers gas gone flat so I could get a measures ment but I will once iv got a battery

968 Hacth feels lighter but I just thought it MIT be the difference in spoiler.
 
This would affect the rear wiper mechanism too, which I dont recall. If you are measuring the thickness then Id suggest comparing it to an earlier <1988 part.
 
Yes strange, don't think there's much in it. I thought I had done it up tight the 1st time I put it on. Notice it wasn't water tight, so I tried some grips as it would just spin. This was when I relised it was bottom out, cut a bit off 3mm and now it works.
 
One model in the 924/944/968 range at least did have a thinner glass in the hatch, and I dare say there is nothing to stop said thinner glass being bonded in to any frame, if the frame is at all different anyway.
