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

I have a headlight out and went to change the bulb only to find that my tool kit does not have the headlight removal tool. Anyone know if there is a substitute for this? The local porsche dealership does not have them in stock. I am heading out of town tomorrow for a week and want to get in fixed ASAP. Thanks!

POST 2Original post

5MM long socket Just discussed over at Renntech.org: http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=5863

POST 3Original post

Dell you are too quick with the response...damn beat me to it again!

POST 5Original post

I would think your dealer would let you borrow on to change the bulb. Shouldn't take more than 5 minutes and can easily be done in the parking lot.

POST 6Original post

Kris is being too easy on the dealer. I think the dealer should install a new bulb for free. That's what my dealer does when one of my bulbs goes out.

POST 7Original post

I would like to add, to make sure its a deep socket
