Lightbulb Source for front turn signal boot

I needed to remove the front bumper on my 1987 924S. Part of removing it is to disconnect the turn signals which are housed in the bumper. I noticed that the rubber boots around the front turn signal sockets are deteriorating.



Does anyone know where I can buy new boots? If the boots are no longer available, what did you do to cover the socket to keep it dry?

There is a VW part that is similar and functionally the same and pretty easy to get.

171957911 is the part number

kind of joking but if you buy a pair of heavy rubber gloves you can cut the fingers off and get 10 of them .. then use tie wraps and some sealant maybe.. you never see them and they keep water out right?

Did you hear about the guy with 5 penises?


- His pants fit like a glove.
