Whilst changing my number plate bulbs to LED, I noticed that on one side I was missing one of the rubber 'jackets' that encompass the light fitting.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Whilst changing my number plate bulbs to LED, I noticed that on one side I was missing one of the rubber 'jackets' that encompass the light fitting. Since then the bulb which is not encased in the rubber jacket has blown due, I imagine, to the ingress of water and dirt. I have tried to find these rubber 'jackets' on most of the advertised supplier's websites but to no avail. Doe anyone know where they can be sourced? I don't know if they are the same as used in 996s. I have thought of covering the light fitting with electrical tape but am concerned about how hot they may get... A blown bulb every now and again is probably better than a fire :?:

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

No Jonttt as I thought it would really p**s them off trying to explain this on the phone. Going to one tomorrow for an MOT so will discuss with parts department either pre or post coffee and croissant.... uh:

POST 4Original post

hmm... i think they are the same .. ill have a check to see what i can find. The number plate light has the same part number so the rubber boot will be the same but its not listed as a seperate part .. my conclusion is its part of the rear end wiring harness .. PET may have a seperate number for it but thats back to the OPC to confirm im afraid , i dont have pet here

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks very much deMort. You were quite right - the OPC found the item after looking at the wiring harness diagrams. Appreciate your help. :thumb:

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
