Convertible Transmission Standoff

[tmorgan46]

Hi All,
New here, tried searching and didn't have much luck; willing to bet there are a dozen or so posts directly related to my question.
I have recently joined the club with a 2000 Porsche Boxster Base, convertible top. Just bought it a few months ago and slowly working through a few issues that need to be addressed. The convertible top has a few items that I'm slowly working off. Most recent is trying to get it back to working order, most of the parts are present, in the front boot, except the top transmissions. Both are missing. I ordered a L/H and R/H off Ebay and while the part number off both sync up with the car, the standoffs, all six, are too short. About 1/4". I've been scouring the web looking to see if the standoffs being sold are longer, but I'll be damned if I can find the exact measurements. Any insight to this you all can share? I'm wouldn't be surprised if I've ordered the wrong part(s) but am hopeful I can find six standoffs that are a bit longer that will allow me to install and move to the next step. Thanks in advance,
Cheers!

Had mine for 3 months. Top worked fine but I found the driver side rod to the clam shell and the passenger side rod to the roof both broke off, still worked. Thought about it and converted the roof to manual operation. My Saturn Sky Redline came with a manuel roof and is okay. Removed the other two rods and the 19mm bolt holds every thing to the transmisons.

OK guys, there used to be something called the PET and if he had that he could look in the diagrams, find the parts and the part numbers and all the little stuff like nuts and washers have specs.

Can someone give him a current link?
