One of my amber headlight infill panels is damaged and needs replacing (the little triangular piece alongside the indicator). It is currently held together with glue!

I have checked ebay, and various other places, but can only find the clear ones, or amber ones for cars with headlight washers.

Has anybody upgraded to clear headlights, and now has these pieces spare that they want to sell? Do you know of anywhere selling them (obviously I want to avoid main dealer prices!).

It is for a 2002 Boxster S. I need the driver's side - no headlamp washer.

Thank you for your most useful reply. As you can see from my original post i have already looked on eBay.

You will notice that all your links are for parts in the USA. These will all have a long delivery time, high postage cost, import duty, VAT and Royal Mail handling charge, making them uneconomical. I would rather wait for some to come up in Europe than pay the prices they are charging!

Since this is an enthusiasts' forum, i figured there may be some people out there who have already upgraded to the clear lights, and have the reflectors in the garage. So if that is you, and you want some cash for them, let me know!

You can normally get these easily from most of the online Porsche shops, Type911, Design911, Porscheshop etc.
