Default Porsche Salvage Yard?

I'm looking for an H4 headlamp assembly for my car.
I thought it would be simple to find one at a Porsche dismantler like Oklahoma Foreign or LA Porsche Dismantler. ...but alas neither has a salvaged H4 headlamp assembly - only H5.

Anyone have the name & number of a salvage yard I could try?

Try searching for ones in the UK as they are more likely to have H4 units.

Do you think a UK dismantler is going to want to ship across the pond?

...nothing but H5 lamps.
They quoted me $157 for a new one which is substantially cheaper than another quote I got earlier this week. note to self: call these guys next time I need something

Terry,
Try Oklahoma Foreign @ (800) 462-2446. Ask for Gary. I unfortunately bought lots of body parts from him when I had my RSA race car Great folks w/good prices.

You can try 20th Street Auto Parts in Pheonix, AZ. They've been able to hook me up for a reasonable price and I know they are parting a 1991 Tip Cab since I've gotten some pieces off of it. You could also try Vetex parts.
