Recently, I found the top on my '04 wouldn't lower before I realized that the parking brake warning light wasn't on even though the brake was. Well, time to replace that switch.
I ended up ordering it from Brumos on Friday, and had it overnighted from Atlanta to pick up on Saturday (paid about $9.32 out the door). Got to see a Carrera GT and a 918 Spyder, but that's a different story.
Once I looked at the switch, I noticed VW/Audi logos and part number on it, 1H0 947 561 A. For kicks, I plugged that into parts.com and the price came back as $18.10 list, $10.86 sale; the Porsche part number 996 613 112 02 came back as $6.85 list, $5.18 sale.
What kind of bizzaro world is this were a part in a Porsche package costs less than the identical part in a VW/Audi package?
