Follow up to camshaft sensor issue

I have replaced the 2 camshaft sensors for my 2003 Porsche boxster, however, I still keep getting the CEL light on my dash. Any help regarding what I need to check next would be appreciated.

Sorry for being Capt Obvious, but did you clear the codes after replacing the sensors? The codes don't go away by themselves.

And not sure about everyone else's auto parts stores, but here in Neb they can only check the codes, they can't clear them. That change has only come in to play in the last yr.
