FS- headlights, muffler, catalytic converter

I have a 2002 base boxster. I have both headlights, rear muffler, and right catalytic converter. Anyone need anything? All OEM.

Any pictures of the headlights? What condition? Still clear? Or slightly yellowed? Can I come up with more questions? Maybe? Perhaps? What a novel idea? Nah, maybe isn't? Oh lawdy, is this getting out of control? Am I bored at work? Maybe? Who knows? Alright, maybe I'll stop?

haha. sorry to hear your bored. perhaps that is a good thing, instead of being stressed out.

regarding the headlights, i don't know how to post on this link. i can send you an email. they are in good condition. no nicks, etc. there is a slight yellow haze at the top, as expected for a 10 year old lamp. send me your email and i'll forward you some pics.

Are they clear markers or amber lenses?

hey whip. same muffler. remember, i told you about this a while back. i was hearing a rattle in the exhaust system and couldn't figure where it was coming from. it sounded like it was on the right side. so i started replacing parts one by one. a muffler and catalytic converter later, it is still there. so i quit searching. so now i have these good spare parts that i don't need.

whip..wish you had too. ps. love your new ride too.

nieuwhzn..yes, i tried checking heat shields too. i literally had that thing on a jack at least 7 different time searching for the noise. it seems to only be intermittent, not at idle, but only when moving. it sounds as if it should be a heat shield, but i played with them all. nothing rattling. it comes on when i drive at low speeds with rpm around 2-3k. i have taken it to 3 different indy's too. no luck with any. it's is so annoying!!!

anyone in atlanta want to give it a try and help me save my sanity?

check the heat shields on the rear brakes and the heat shield over the transmission linkages as well?
