Porsche 993 Cabriolet - 1994 to 1998

Headlining need to be reused from old hood or ordered separately.

Material:
Sonnenland Classic
Sonnenland® is a registered trademark for a very high quality canvas made in Germany and used by car manufacturers worldwide for their
original equipment, including Porsche and Mercedes
This is highly UV and abrasion resistant.
The canvas's trademark is a fish bone or criss-cross pattern on its back.
Sonnenland only refers to the material, i.e. yard goods, and not the finished hood

Sonnenland canvases comprise of three layers:



Outer layer: is made of Dralon, which is a woven acrylic fibre (polyacrylonitrile). This fabric is highly UV and abrasion resistant.

Intermediate layer: The intermediate rubber layer comprises of a waterproof synthetic
rubber material. This removes the need for any additional waterproofing. This is why
we do not offer waterproofing products and advise our customers against using any
such products offered on the market.

Inner layer: The backing used to be made of cotton (Sonnenland Classic) and is now
made of polyester

100% waterproof:
We use a kind of thread that has been specially developed for soft tops that swells up when wet and consequently effectively seals the seam holes. All of the seams on the hood are furthermore treated with a fabric seam sealer to ensure that they are 100% waterproof.

No cleaning or waterproofing required:
There will not be any need for expensive cleaning or waterproofing agents. Sonnenland® canvas is a 3-ply material and has a rubber middle layer. The rubber layer keeps water from penetrating through the roof.

Information on the rear window:
Flexible polyglas rear window, with the same thickness (1 mm) as the original, TÜV-certified, permanently sewn-in.
In the original hood, the PVC window was welded to the cloth, which meant that it often came loose. Sewing the window into place has completely solved this issue. The window is made of a clear panel just like the original. The entire window is framed by a sewn-in zip on the inside to which the headliner is connected, just as in the original.

PVC window protection:
The PVC windows for our hoods are protected with our carefully sewn-on window protector and tissue paper during transport and right up until they are fully fitted. This was an intentional move on our part, and is very different from the less expensive fastening options that only involve tape and/or paper. Although this involves more work, it prevents the window protector from moving out of place or coming loose during transport and fitting, and the window from becoming scratched. It also ensures that there will not be any adhesive residues on the hood canvas/window, which are often difficult to remove.

What's included:
Ready-to-fit soft top without frame and seals - which will be reused.

This convertible top drive cable is a precision-engineered replacement that links the power-top motor to the drive shafts, ensuring smooth, synchronized roof movement on Porsche 911 (964 / 993) models. It maintains proper tension and alignment to prevent roof jamming or uneven operation.

Fits:
Only for cars with dual cable drive motors.

Porsche 993  >>1995 only Cabrio

For 993 1996 onwards you will need 99356192102 and 99356192202

Diagram Ref: 11

Over time the original cable may stretch, fray, or degrade due to repeated use, exposure to weather and tension cycling—resulting in roof mis-alignment, jamming, or uneven operation.

When replacement matters:
•  If the convertible top motors run but the roof doesn’t move symmetrically or stops in mid-travel.
•  After roof mechanism overhaul, motor replacement or if the existing cable shows damage.
•  As part of a full roof service or restoration to restore factory precision and reliability.

Convertible Top Drive Cable. Porsche 993 Cabriolet.
Restore the reliable motion of your Porsche 993 Cabriolet’s soft-top system with this high-quality replacement convertible top drive cable. Precision-engineered to the original dimensions, this replacement cable ensures smooth, synchronised operation of the roof drive mechanism and consistent performance over time.

Fits:
Porsche 993 (911) C2 1995-97
Porsche 993 (911) C4 1995-97
VIN Range: From # 996TS341001

Diagram Ref No 11 and 11a

What This Product Does:

• The convertible top drive cable connects the electric motor and transmission units to each side of the soft-top frame, synchronising movement and ensuring both sides of the roof open and close evenly.
• It transmits torque from the roof motor drive to the gear mechanisms in each roof hinge, allowing precise folding, latching, and sealing of the Cabriolet top.
• A well-fitted cable ensures balanced drive force distribution, quiet operation, and smooth folding motion of the 993’s iconic soft-top system.

Symptoms & Signs Of Wear / When To Replace:

• Uneven or jerky roof operation — one side of the top may rise or lower faster than the other.
• Audible clicking, slipping, or grinding noises from within the roof drive system.
• Roof fails to close fully, stops midway, or triggers warning lights due to cable tension loss.
• Frayed, stretched, or snapped cable ends found during inspection of the convertible drive assembly.
• If the soft-top motor or drive gears have been replaced, always inspect and replace old cables to maintain alignment and performance.

Why Replacement Matters:

• Restores smooth and balanced roof motion: A worn or broken drive cable can cause misalignment between left and right sides, risking frame twist or soft-top fabric damage.
• Prevents costly motor or gearbox damage: A binding or stretched cable can overload the roof motor or strip internal gears — timely replacement prevents cascading failures.
• Long-term reliability: High-grade cable replacements are built to withstand the repeated stress and torsion of roof cycles, ensuring dependable operation for years.
• Ideal for preventative maintenance: If your Porsche 993 roof operation has slowed or become noisy, replacing the cables ensures future reliability without major teardown later.

Upgrade or restore your Porsche 993 Cabriolet convertible top drive system with premium replacement drive cables. These precision-built components ensure proper soft-top synchronisation and smooth roof movement, solving common issues like uneven operation, sticking, or incomplete closure. Over time, the original drive cables can stretch, corrode, or snap due to years of torsional stress and lack of lubrication.

By fitting new high-specification drive cables from Design911, you’ll restore perfect alignment, prevent roof motor strain, and eliminate jerky motion. Ideal for Porsche 911 993 Cabriolet owners performing roof repairs, drive motor replacement, or full soft-top restoration.
