Seems that it is an inherent porsche scenario that both do go together.
At least it's fixed !

It's not just a Porsche scenario. Think about it for a moment...
- the lamps/bulbs were most likely made around the same time
- they were installed in vehicle at same time
- they run at the same time
Whenever I replace bulbs, especially headlight and brake light bulbs, I just do the pair at the same time. Although they don't usually go bad at the exact same time, I find I'm more often than not replacing the opposite side w/in a week or 2. Having said that, I suspect one side went out and you didn't really notice it until the other side also blew.
In a pinch, if you don't have the litronics, the high,low, and fogs all use H7 bulbs and can easily be replaced yourself. So easy in fact Porsche even gives you directions on how to in the manual as opposed to "See you Authorized Dealer" B.S.
