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

So I was preparing to go get an inspection sticker on the 911 and one of my rear plate bulbs was out. So I go to change the bulb and the whole assembly crumbles. Best place to get a replacement?

POST 2Original post

Suncoast or Sunset porsche are good for original equipment at a discount. Aaron at Rennpart has been able to get original equipment parts for me at good prices.

POST 4Original post

Good point. I forget this, since the nearest dealer for me is in another state, and not in practical driving distance for easily shipped items. One more thought (if you don�t have a porsche dealer nearby) - I bought my last set of 996 license plate light assemblies on ebay, genuine porsche parts, and inexpensive.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the responses! I'm thinking I may just go LED. It's half the price or less than OE.
