TPS quoted £373 + VAT = £448

Best I have had is £315 + VAT = £378 - this is from a local indy who wants £150 to fit the part

Maybe you could start another thread asking if anyone would be willing to fit it for you as well?

Not to fussed about fitting its more on how much I can get the part for. Labour is 2 hours so no getting out of that.

No i actually work for Porsche now. I am the sole employee that works on updating models to give them a fresher look but I'm a bit bored as the only thing I have to do is replace yellow indicators with clear ones - voila! Your 1998 996 just became a 2003 996.

This. Definitely worth a go I would have thought. As you said Op "If you don't ask, you don't get".
