If private party, but the red lights from Sunset, and sell your Clear Lights here (if you become a Rennlist Member). You should be able to make the swap for little out-of-pocket money.
The clears cost more than the reds, and the clears are pretty desirable to some owners, so they would sell pretty fast if fairly priced.
* EDIT- wow, I just checked, why are reds now more than clears? Has it always been this way? I thought the clears cost more.

Dealership or private party sale? If dealership, make the sale contingent on them swapping out the lights. Worse case, you buy the lights from a place like Sunset (or they price match) and swap out for no charge in the labor.

I would like some red lenses too. I gave the clears a chance.

in terms of over the counter Porsche dealer parts pricing , the standard reds have always been more than the optional clears .... my thinking is this is PCNA's way to " assist " body shops in charging insurers more $$$ for parts ( where they make a decent part of their profit , esp the new parts that a 10 yr old can install ) since they are the default factory ones and so are much more often damaged in fender benders / rear enders / backing into poles , etc.

Removal is a 5 minute job per side.
1) Raise the spoiler to be fully extended
2) You will see a plastic cover that is almost square on the deck below the spoiler. Pull the cover straight up and off.
3) Remove the two small torx bolts. There are three in total only the two smaller are to be removed.
4) Carefully slide the tail light towards you and when it clears the body remove the wire connection with a small screw driver.
To reinstall, reverse the above.
