just bought from the masters in ripp offs...LA Porsche dismantlers...they are asking $250 for each side.....used coming from a crashed Porsche...but they can, because you can't find them anywhere else and the originals go for 400 per side

So more than 4000 bucks, normally they charge you 4500 for the conversion set alone and then you still have to pay for the painting and replacing !!

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Anywbody know where I can buy the headlight wiring harnesses for a 996. I am in the middle of my facelift (turbo bumper and headlights) and I need wiring harnesses...I know the part department at the Porsche sells them, but at almost $ 400 plus tax for each side!!!! A little much for a couple of wires.. Anybody any alternative...or do I just have to bite the bullit...... thanks

POST 2Original post

Hi Nicolaas, That sounds like a cool mod. I love those headlights, I think that may be the first order of business after I get my car... Here is a thread to buy it now on ebay for headlight assembly, it sounds like could be complete, you could call them. maybe they also have wiring you could order seperately http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/HEADL...43891665QQrdZ1 [phone removed] Post pics of process, Is it something one could do at home after bumper is painted? Good luck Robert

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

just bought from the masters in ripp offs...LA Porsche dismantlers...they are asking $250 for each side.....used coming from a crashed Porsche...but they can, because you can't find them anywhere else and the originals go for 400 per side If I where you I would look for a 2001, because the mod is pretty expensive....I got lucky buying the fenders. bumper and headlights for 1350 but had to buy some brackets and other plastic parts...and bumper lip totalling 500 bucks....now the headlight wire harnesses 550 bucks.....replacing and painting about 1000 and only because he is my business neighbor So more than 4000 bucks, normally they charge you 4500 for the conversion set alone and then you still have to pay for the painting and replacing !! So the conversion normally would be about 6000 dollars add this to your budget and buy a 2001 with the new front! the ebay auction you refer to is only for the right side...

POST 5Original post

Yeah....maybe a call to Venice Collision [phone removed]....They had them in stock because they do so many conversions...and like I said, I think he only charged me $175 a side.....And they were new.
