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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Posted this in Wanted section but thought I'd do it here as well for every chance .....Good mate has a panel shop and is chasing a passenger side 2000 - 2004, 996 tail light (with clear top lens not amber). Could be new but is really after a used one.  .... needs it soon as. If anyone is unloading one shoot me a message and we'll set the wheels in motion. He'll probably get a courier to pick it up.

POST 2Original post

I'll check with a mate who has a damaged Cab in "stock" - rear hit, not sure which side though, think it was drivers

POST 3Original post

He's checking, but thinks the Cab taillights may be different from the Coupe (he was mentally comparing them to his GT3 and GT3RS....)

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hmmm might be, I have no idea. Thanks mate

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for that Dan, quite cheap huh! I'll let my mate know …..How much for your set or preferably would you split them? How much for one?

Sorry Troubleshooter - don't want to split them. Can't beat the price on the gumtree one! Cheers!

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Cool. How much for you like new pair Dan? Cancel that Dan, I just rang him and he's brought one.. thanks anyway

POST 9Original post

Quotes source post: 280476

No worries! Did he get the gumtree one?

POST 10 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

No I don't think so … I shot him an email immediately with the Gumtree link and his receptionist shot back they already brought one. His customer may have stumped up for a new one and not a used one, as they had a tight time frame to get one.

POST 11Original post

Ouch I think last time I looked them up they were around $850 each new...

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Wouldn't surprise me at all Dan
