Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

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.

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

Rennlist: 1 discussions

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

Do I understand correctly that there are two types or 3rd brake lights on 996, which are not cross compatible? I apologise if this has been mentioned before. Type 1: ones fitted on the boot lid (996 Carrera variants + GT3) Part numbers 99663105000, 99663105002, 99663105004 and 99663105006 Type 2: ones fitted on the boot spoiler (996 Turbo variants + GT2) Part numbers 99663105001, 99663105003, 99663105005 and 99663105001

POST 2Original post

My C4 996.2 has a light on the deck lid and a light under the spoiler when it goes up.. They don't look the same.. Total super wild *** guess.. (SWAG) I would guess that moving spoiler models use 1 of each and the turbo uses the one that fits in the bottom of the Carrera wing(Smaller)
