CK,
? I do not understand what you mean by "hardtop"? If you are talking Coupe - sorry can't help.
The Pep Page you show is also for the Cabrio. Is that what you are looking for ? If you need item 35 - 38 the Third Brake light fixture on the Boot Lid (?) these are acually Chevy Corvette parts - so if you cannot get them from Porche or a dismantler - try your Chevy Dealer and ask for a 1991-92 Corvette Third Brake light assembly. Really that is the part - same bulbs as well.

See what these guys may have in stock. Go here:

Last I priced this from the dealer it was about 125.00 and had to come from Germany. Best to find a parts car somewhere. I ended up with a very nice one on a parts car I picked up.

Darryl92Cab-

I believe the full assembly is over $400 from the dealer!!! Thanks for the reference to GAD... I checked them out and according to their website, they have the complete assembly and I ordered up!!

Thanks again! Looking forward to see if I get the full assembly...

You were correct abt the pt# on that page, the other assy is for the, ahem, non-coupe (or hardtop, whichever you prefer).
There are several places that that part can be ordered from, I saw one for $177.

968 Guy-

You are right, but I misread the drawing in that I needed both assembly #24 and the support part # 32... The combined cost is around $400 from the dealer...

Chuck, have you tried Parts Heaven? It's just a quick jaunt over the San Mateo bridge and I've seen several coupes there with good rear hatch and brake lights.

I live about 30 minutes away and with all the Porsches I've had over the years, I just have part of my salary sent straight to PH...LOL!!!

Oh, they only sell the brake light separately if the hatch is messed up....
