Now I RANT

Three years ago I bought these lightweight plastic rear parking/brake light assemblies from a well known UK Porsche parts supplier in an attempt to reduce rear weight. The web pictures looked great but when I got them, I was really disappointed.
Not only do the wiring connectors not match, they are flimsy, subject to early corrosion, exposed to the dirt and grime thrown up from the rear wheels and the actual light bodies are different on the back side. When I complained, the answer was from one of their support staff was that he had similar ones on his Porsche for three years with no problem. The subsequent back and forth via email got me nowhere.
Needless to say, I got some new ones from my local Porsche dealership here in Canada which fortunately cost less than importing from the U.S..
Still peeress me …….last time I’ll deal with those jockeys who apparently have a good reputation in the UK.


END OF RANT
Cheers,
Johan
