I see that Suncoast Porsche has the X74 kit for sale for $2,495 + Ship. They have kits available for 2002-2004 C2 and C4 cars. They do not list an X74 kit for the MK1 996 however, which is what I have.

The x74 was designed for the 2002+ but many use x74 on pre-2002 996s with no problems.

You mentioned:
I think there is a VAT charge of 21% on top of this, right? With VAT, the price is close to PSS10s.
I bought the kit last year in Feb. I had to pay roughly $50 to FedEx for customs/VAT. That was it. When I bought the dollar was a little stronger...it cost around $2K total to my door step. From date of order to my door was 4 days.

I would suggest you PM Gert (he is on RL) for a quote to get the total cost.
