Thanks once again Loren, BTW - do you know the part numbers for the Hood/Trunk release levers? Can those be purchased separately(I just want to replace the two levers as described in your DIY section).

Thanks - Tony

Tony,

The parts don't show up in the current price list - which likely means you can't get them any more or they must be special ordered. I'll look through my old price lists and see if I can find the numbers so you can have a dealer see if there are some in stock anywhere. Option 2 is to remove them and paint them. A couple folks have said that is not too hard to do. Option 3 would be to find a Carrera (or Boxster if you don't mind black ones) at a parts yard.

Loren, what is the correct way to paint them?

[my996]

I could take them out and use this stuff... http://www.autopia-carcare.com/wus-892181.html What do you think?

That will likely work. I would use a coat or two of Wurth Clear Coat over them.

Found these is the RoW price list. Maybe someone can get these from Europe still?

For LHD cars:

996 551 511 07 V01 Handle (silver) (front release)

996 551 512 07 V01 Handle (silver) (rear release)

or contact Sunset Imports (Porsche Parts at Dealer Cost) above as they may have more information...
