I had to change the indicator bulb holder on my car's headlight this evening, so I also had a look at the parking bulb holder.

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.

Hello all,
My ‘03 911 996 Targa needs a new socket/mounting piece for the right parking light bulb (attached some pics from Rennlist).
Local indie says otherwise I have to replace the headlight (expensive).
Can anyone help source the part?

Ah, sorry - I misread your original post. Indeed, that bulb holder doesn't seem to be available separately.
You'll probably need to try and bodge it somehow - or find a used headlight that you can take that part from.
Correct link (I hope) to the parts diagram :

Ok, you owe me a beer...
I had to change the indicator bulb holder on my car's headlight this evening, so I also had a look at the parking bulb holder.
It's a Hella 149915, which is used by Mercedes. Who are good enough to sell it as a separate part, not just in a complete headlight unit
Part number : 2108260582
It's not a direct swap, you'll have to de-pin and re-pin to swap the connectors around...but it's doable.
