The spirit headlights were only for 1997. There was a change in the law and they went away for model year 1998. Porsche no longer sells this light. That is why your parts guy cannot find them. All 986 headlights have the "ruler."

I know. I have a 1997 that got backed up into by a truck a few years ago. Switched to 996 clears. I still have the right side headlight with the bubble level.
