Porsche Hood Lock - Genuine Porsche 99751105301

Product Information

A hood lock (also called a hood latch) is a mechanical locking device that secures the vehicle’s hood in place when closed. It typically works with a release cable and safety catch, ensuring the hood stays shut during driving while still allowing access to the engine bay when needed.

• Hood not closing or latching securely, leaving it loose or partially open.
• Difficulty opening the hood, often due to a stuck or corroded latch mechanism.
• Rattling or unexpected hood release while driving, creating a serious safety hazard if the lock fails completely.

About Genuine Porsche

The original parts used by Porsche to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine Porsche” brand. Manufactured under the direction of Porsche, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are exclusively available through the Porsche Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your Porsche are not necessarily manufactured by Porsche. No cause for concern, as Porsche designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for Porsche for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine Porsche parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a Porsche logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
