Looking for a source for the body hole plugs that are used on early 911's.
Stoddard has some but far from all the ones you need when doing a full restoration. Photo of what I am refering to is attached.

While its 5 years ago I was able to order them all from Porsche they have a listing in the parts manuals(body section) and you order by size and from memory all the ones needed for a 73 were available

Hi Clyde is right, virtually all are still availble from Porsche.

A search at Stoddard for just "plug" showed, besides the six or so plastic plugs (30mm - 11mm) at least 7 different "plugs" (some rubber) that start with 999.703.0..... which appears to be the number category for "stoppers" as the parts catalog calls them. In other words, they apparently have more than just the plastic plugs, but you have to search by part number. I can't find the 11 or so little rubber drainplugs that fit the holes down the center of the underside of the floorpan. The parts book doesn't show them or a part number. If you come across them in your search, let us know. Thanks

FWIW Stoddard does NOT always have everything. Check with your dealer. I always thought Stoddard has what the dealer has and then more vintage but it is not the case. I know this first hand. Just passing this along.

Try Sunset Porsche in Beaverton, Oregon. I've gotten several parts that surprised me: Brake caliper o-rings, reservoir to master cylinder grommets etc. - all for 1969.

...I have a reproduction of the center pan plugs in rubber (some cars have these and some do not). I also have exact reproduction door plugs in rubber.
I got them from Porsche, you mean the black rubber with cone shaped tip or later ones were hollow style white plastic plugs I believe (73 maybe 72).
It was a few years ago but I remember they were I the parts book but certainly not where they would have been expected to list.
I'll do a search would have had the invoice with part numbers but the resto is long since sold
