Default 991.1 Headlight part number got me confused

Hello,

I have a 2012 Carrera S, looking to replace the passenger side xenon headlight AFS with option code 603 (PDLS). I cant find my specific part number which is 991.631.136.03.
I am learning that the part numbers differ throughout the 991.1 years but are still compatible depending on options and styling.

So, I found a used headlight on ebay part number 991.631.136.12. The seller does not know if it has the PDLS option 603 or the vehicle VIN, but otherwise it looks like it will fit fine. Anyone know?

I may be wrong, but I don’t know if “non PDLS” headlights even exist. when I was searching for headlights myself, all I found was PDLS vs PDLS+ (LED). When I was looking at part numbers for PDLS I found that the only major difference between them was housing color (Silver, Grey, Black)

Does anyone know what the difference is between PDLS and “Non PDLS”? Is it just the leveling? My PDLS headlights had two silver modules. One was the ballast, and the other was for the leveling. You can check if the headlight you’re trying to buy has the plug for the second module which is the headlight leveling.

for our .1 models, i think non-PDLS (regular bi-xenon) headlights are all silver housing while PDLS headlights are a gray housing.

I think you are right, suncoast sells the silver ones for cheaper
