My question to you guys is can I buy just the switch like this one -> http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Brand-New-Porsche-Carrera-Headlight-Switch_W0QQitemZ130180553805QQihZ003QQcategoryZ426 13QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD6VQQcmdZViewItem#ebayphotoh osting

or do I need the switch and the knob like this -> http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Porsche-986-Boxster-996-911-Headlight-switch-with-Knob_W0QQitemZ280170449762QQcmdZViewItem

Also would both / either of these work for 01 boxster S?

Btw I think I'm gonna sell the box, I dunno I think Im getting bored with it :gasp: looking at a 911 cab speed yellow tip 2002+ I like those headlights, or maybe a turbo cab but I want speed yellow and in tip and I cant seem to find any of those.

Thanks!

What you'll need is this part:



That is the actual headlight switch that you need to replace...
