I just sent Pelican a ticket asking what the differences are and why they are for 97 and 98 model years only.

I'm curious too.

I might suspect Aftermarket Supplier if it didn't say OEM. Let me know what you find. You're a bit of a night owl aren't you? Almost 1am there!

I think your on the right track. The reply back said "The only difference is who we buy the part from on 996-106-011-56-OEM ". No explanation on the 97 and 98 model year only part, so I replied back asking again why they are for 97 and 98 model years only.

So if I'm reading this correctly, according to Pelican site, Pierburg must be OES, OEM and AS, but only for 97 to 98. Later years may have different manufacturer?
