Thanks @lml999 . Based on @porsches4ed comment about "OEM quality", I took the chance and got the silver/red/black from the seller GillMotors in Etsy. Should arrive USA (comes from UK..) next week, then another week from USA to Panama...

Say what? Where did you see this? From my research there is one knuckle for all 958s. I and a few others have put turbo brakes on s model trucks on all corners no problem

Yep, I ended up removing the T25s from the edges around the intercooler. Using a scientifically established unit of measurement known as one stinger flashlight and a half length from the fog lamp and the back of a tall USPS mailer as a target I am hoping I've lowered the beams to a proper height.

By point of comparison I thought I'd show the 'before' and 'after' for my light adjustment adventure. Apparently my cardboard box and flashlight measurement turned out relatively well.
Before, when I wanted to make sure no one saw what I was driving...
After... Which I hope is closer to as designed.

Rear knuckles are vehicle specific.

these are extremely tight just like oem and you cannot spin them. I had to pull them off with the tool and align then push hard to get them on

Interesting. Mine are genuine Porsche and were tight at first. I would look down an the would be out of position after a few drives.

Maybe next time you rotate your tires line them up and give them a touch of rtv. And if you ever need to remove the center cap they just pop right out and you can remove the old rtv with your fingernail. We aren't gluing the center cap in we are just stopping it from rotating.
