Obscure Cabriolet part question

I have an 88 Porsche 911 cabriolet with a power top. I recently purchased a windstop (or wind deflector). The way this installs is to replace the regular version of the side panel plugs (P/N 911.555.523.66) with a version of the plug that has a hole in the center. There are several different side panel plugs listed on Pelican:


OEM-911555523664XC
Genuine Porsche Part: SIDE PANEL PLUG
$4.25
OEM-911555523666WX
Genuine Porsche Part: CAP
$3.25
OEM-911555523666ZF
Genuine Porsche Part: SIDE PANEL PLUG
$3.25
OEM-9115555236670B
Genuine Porsche Part: SIDE PANEL PLUG
$4.25
OEM-911555523669JJ

My question - which, if any, of these plugs have a hole in the center that can be used with the windstop part number (000-043-202-10-OEM) ?

Does anyone using a factory windstop have those plugs, and iss the P/N visible on the inside? A brand new version of the windstop comes with the two replacement plugs, but I bought mine secondhand and the plugs didn't come with it. I could just drill a hole in my current plugs, but thought I would check first if the part is available.

thanks!!

Like I said in my original post, I bought the windstop secondhand (although it appears to be brand new) but it did not come with the two plugs. That's why I am wondering if anyone can tell me the P/N of the two replacement plugs.

thanks

I didn't get instructions, but I found this :

Windstop for 1986 Cabriolet with mechanical top

I had trouble reading it, but I think its pretty simple to install, if you have the correct side panel plugs.
