Very important! In replacing your cap and tank - DON'T cheap out and go with an aftermarket tank!!! Spend the extra coin and get a Porsche tank and cap. There's many, many stories about failure of aftermarket caps and tanks taking a dump soon after installation.
Same with your water pump - buy a PORSCHE pump - not an aftermarket cheapy. Again, lots of horror stories about aftermarket pumps.
These are NOT items you want to purchase from Rock Auto or someplace from eBay or another cheap replacement.

Mine looked pretty grimey on the inside, but not the worst I’ve seen. After it had gushed out everywhere I pulled the carpet back around it and saw it running down from the hoses. It’s all soaked into the foam against the firewall now
