Ebay is no longer a great place to sell parts. The Porsche parts section is full of Chinese knock-off crap and mis-listed HID bulbs, etc. Sell through on parts is low, and you'll end up relisting several times. Craigslist is far better.
Consider: "pose" and shoot the part, edit/crop, upload to eBay (extra photos & large photos are upcharges). Promptly answer random questions (some, you'll have to research) and relist if nobody bids/reaches reserve/flakes out on paying. That's a big time investment. Then if you sell, obtain packing material and pack safely. Absorb Paypal fees. Absorb risk of claims of loss & misrepresentation.
I used to like eBay for selling stuff (over 400 transactions and 300+ rating) and still occasionally use it, but take a look at (for instance) the stuff S Auto Parts (above link) actually gets bids on -- less than 10% of listings.
A few years ago, eBay moved to favor the high volume buyers (importers) of auto parts and the private party sellers have suffered.
