Bit of a random one - have a MY22 GT4 with the Bi-Xenon PDLS fitted.....are the black Xenon lights from any 718 with PDLS exactly the same, or are the GT4 ones unique does anyone happen to know?

Have a stone chip/crack in one of my lenses and just wondering whether to go main dealer or look 2nd hand/other parts suppliers if they are all the same?

Cheers,

Dave.

All the Xenon PDSL may be the same but they are not the same as the Led PDSL

Thank for the replies.

It's definitely not the full 4 point LED option with PDSL+

My car was specced with Bi-Xenon lights with PDSL which have the black light housing rather than the silver one of the standard/base Bi-Xenon's....

There seem to be a few of these about from various manufacture years, I just want to make sure that if I go for an older 2nd hand unit that it will work as long as it this same "mid-range" option....

I think I have seen somewhere that there was a Bi-Xenon PDSL+ option on earlier 718 Caymans? If so, is the light unit itself still the same on that option and it's just the additional camera and controlling software that makes it a "+" version....or is the light unit itself potentially different?.....bit of an anoracky question I know.....but I'm guessing a new unit from Porsche is going to be £2.5/£3K plus fitting, whereas a 2nd hand one may only be a £grand and a local decent bodyshop can fit for a couple of hundred I'm sure....

Bloody lorries kicking up stones......

Just cross reference the part number with the broken unit. If it's the same then you're golden.

There are two versions of the updated xenon’s, one is black, the other isn’t. They both look pretty similar on the configurator. My T has black PDLS and my base mode had the non-black PDLS.
