Description
New Targa Top Latch (Catch/Lock) for Porsche 911 Targa 1967–1985 and Cabriolet 1983–1985. Matches Porsche part number 911.565.031.41 (91156503141)
Porsche’s original Targa-top latch was designed as a non-serviceable unit. Over time, internal components wear, compromising the proper function and safety of the lock. While older latches may still operate, worn primary hooks, broken rotary pins, stiff safety hooks or play in the mechanism all make these locks unsafe. A Targa Top that flies off during driving costs thousands of dollars to repair. More often than not, the cause is a worn latch.
Our precision-engineered Targa top catch is redesigned for superior safety and reliability, while preserving original form and function. Key improvements include:
-
Rotary pin and primary hook made from high-carbon steel for maximum strength
-
Additional bushings and high-resistance spring to ensure smooth, reliable operation of the safety hook
-
Primary hook geometry re-designed to improve locking performance
-
Tighter tolerances on dowel pins, cams, pushrods, and other internal parts
-
TIG-welded internal connections replacing unreliable press-fit (interference fit) joints in the original lock
-
Electroplated finish for corrosion resistance and smooth operation
The result is a latch that looks and functions like the original, but with improved precision, durability and security, giving you confidence and peace of mind on every drive.
Sold per piece. Fits both left and right side
