    Mine fell out - is it an issue to drive around like this (after replacing wheel), even for a short time? i.e. are they for convenience, or actually required to orient the spacer? Simon

    Thanks - I assume any M6x16 will work. Simon

    Quick question - does anyone know the size of the counter-sunk set screws for 996 5mm OEM spacers? I believe it's M6 x something. Thanks in advance! Simon

    Hi, A rather basic question, but I need the trim and nozzle piece for the passenger side headlight on a US 996 C2 2004. I have the parts manual, but don't know what side L R refer to, so is the correct part: 996 628 143 00 or 996 628 144 00 ? So, is 'L' facing the car, or sitting in the car?? Thanks in advance. Simon

    Great advice kgoertz - I used a small AC compressor using one of the inflatable toy adapters (See photos) - hit the compressor for about 1 second and the washer pops up. Leaving the compressor connected, but not on, keeps enough back pressure to keep the washer popped up as I removed it. The best way is to lightly compress the tabs on the main shaft, then the chrome cap just pops off. btw I completed one light - for me I needed one 3M kit per headlight, so the passenger side is next weekends project....

    This is a great fix. I had noisy seats in my 2004 C2 Cab ever since I bought the car in 2007. It was 'on my list' to remove the seats - ugghh. I gave this fix a go using the Teflon spray (from Amazon.com), and it worked perfectly. 5 minute fix. I've attached a couple of photos showing the bushing cover, both on and off. It's more like hard plastic than rubber, and to remove it I found pushing with your thumb on the side facing you as you grab it from behind the seat the seems to work. Simon

    I have some pretty dingy headlights on my 2004 996, and I plan to use a 3M kit to restore them. My plan is to remove the headlights and place them in a jig to hold them while I preform the restoration. One question though - has anyone done this on headlights that have washer with the chrome caps, see photo? Should I try to remove these first, and if so, how? I've looked in the forum regarding the chrome caps and there are generally instruction on how to install replacements, but not on removal. I don't want to break anything, since that would mean I need new headlights. Thanks in advance. Simon
