Porsche Parking Brake Support Plate Rear (Boxster Cayman) - Genuine Porsche 99735280701

Product Information

The parking brake support plate acts as a mounting point and sliding surface for the parking brake shoes. This support plate is often a separate piece from the brake rotor backing plate and can be replaced if there is wear or pitting. When servicing your drum-style parking brake system it's a good idea to inspect the sliding surface of the parking brake support plate to make sure the surface is in good condition. Any pitting or marring on the surface of this plate can interfere with the movement of the parking brake shoes.

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.
