I purchased a set of 2003/2004 MY clear signal headlights for my 2001 Boxster S. Unfortunately one was DOA (the internal lamp assembly was dislodged and the pieces actually broken). These particular lights were made by Automotive Lighting, which I understand were the OEM replacement lights as opposed to the lights made by Bosch. In looking for a new light to replace this broken one, I'm finding that I can buy the Bosch version for about $410 but the Automotive Lighting version actually costs more at $500. Strange I know, but the question is whether or not the two brands are identical in terms of look so I could buy one of the Bosch versions as a replacement (and thereby having one Automotive Lighting and one Bosch). Many thanks in advance.

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.
