I used the URO triangle pieces, but they didn't fit well.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

It's still not perfect, but it's good enough for government work.
Has anyone had issues with the headlight washer delete panels not fitting with the stock headlights? I went with the URO brand headlight panels rather than the oem ones and they just dont seem to snap in properly on either side.
Thanks guys
I used the URO triangle pieces, but they didn't fit well. I had to trim some of the mounting tabs very slightly with an Xacto knife to get them to fit. It's still not perfect, but it's good enough for government work.
That's awesome to see vendor response here. If the design changes, please let us know. With my tabs trimmed, the triangle fits securely, but it doesn't sit flush with the headlights.
^ Thanks, passed along the additional info, very helpful. If you have photos, please email them to "sales at apaindustries d0t c0m" (address obfuscated for spam bots).
Can you tell me what you trimmed? Just ordered some from Ebay hoping I would have a different result. But they literally don't fit - the circle part doesn't line up with where it is supposed to go and I don't want to push hard enough to break the lens.

^ We ceased sale of Headlight Trim Reflectors 996 631 045 00 and 996 631 046 00 temporarily, there's some mold flashing (sorry we don't have photos at the moment) that we're going to remove to correct current inventory. We'll update the production process on our next manufacturing run.

Refreshing, inspiring, or just bloody awesome that a vendor of a niche product is here and addressing a problem with their product? Owning a fleet of German and British toys I have become somewhat jaded and really irritated by aftermarket parts quality especially when the aftermarket part is the only available new option and I am truly glad to see URO stepping up here. Thank you.
Especially happy since a new set of URO reproduction green fabric coolant hoses for my TR6 just appeared on the doorstep!
I believe the OP was referring to the 996.1 litronic "corner pieces" as shown below, not the chrome caps on the 996.2 litronic lights.
Replacements for those are available here:

^ Correct! 99663104500 & 99663104600 are the corner pieces for cars without headlight washers. They're available again; we removed the excess plastic flashing from pieces in inventory and corrected the issue on future production runs. If anyone receives any units from retailer stock that still have the excess flashing, please contact us via
apaindustries.com/contact
for warranty replacements.
ECS, FCP, Rock Auto and others carry them.

Bought the ones from RockAuto listed above.. Installed yesterday and they work. Thank you URO for fixing the mold as the last ones wouldn't fit at all. We appreciate your keeping us in the loop.
