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 50 mm further down.
This requires drilling a new hole, 8.4 mm in diameter, 50 mm 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.

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.
