Any source for plastic switch nuts (light and defog)?

[SpyderMike]

Here is what I am looking for on the defog switch. The light switch is similar.



Does anyone make a metal replacement by any chance? If not, even a new plastic one would help.

Thanks!

You may want to check if the black one of these will work:

FS: Switch Bezel, '71-73 Dual Fog Lights

I think that is a part you can buy from Porsche, so Pelican should be able to supply it. Porsche calls them rosettes. No idea what year car you have, so I didn't look up a part number.

frankc, I will register on that site to see the parts.

javadog, it is a 1985. I will search under rosettes.

Thanks!

911.613.213.03 is probably what you want.

That is it for the light switch! Excellent!

any idea of a part number for the defog switch?

[javadog]

Should be the same part for both switches on your car.

no, the light switch is female thread and the defog switch is male thread.

it might be a 911.613.213.02 then...

[javadog]

Interesting. The PET diagram shows the same part for both. You sure the switches are both original?

[SpyderMike]

As original as my 26 years of ownership and my fading memory will attest to. Anything is possible. I found one site that showed the 1985 with two different dash numbers - items 3 and 16 here:

Porsche Switch, -85 (903-05)

I bought one of each and will close this upon receipt. Thanks for steering me in the right direction.

I was thinking fog light, not headlight...

Maybe I misunderstood which two you needed.

I received them and they are the correct parts. Yippee.
