I did find a set on eBay as well, a little cheaper even. Sent him that link too. Thanks.
Will the single unit I linked above 1)work with car's litronic system 2)be identical in design looks / features? If so, buying one side for about 1k is their best route and fine with me.
Thanks for all the help with this. Never knew there was this much to a headlight....
Love my PB!

It appears to be an oem part. However, the Magneti Marelli is throwing me off. I suspect that's the name of the company who supplies Porsche with headlamps ? Kind of like Bosch who supplies Porsche with certain parts ? Asked them ?

Yeah, I'll call them Monday. Just trying to keep the cars original Lit system but be reasonable. That new light makes the car look new.

get the old one resurfaced. If you break another it's 50/50 you've already got the correct side.
If the ballast goes maybe its 100%.
