This is a genuine Porsche rain sensor, OE part number 99161510801.

Porsche parts catalogues list this number simply as the rain sensor.
OE part number: 99161510801. This number supersedes the earlier part number 99161510800. The related self-adhesive gel film for the sensor, 9A795560900, is a separate part number and is not part of this listing. Always order and verify by the OE part number. Always order and verify by this OE part number, and confirm it against your VIN before ordering.
Porsche catalogue diagrams list this rain sensor in the wiper system of the 911 (991), the Boxster and Cayman ranges including the 718 models, and the 918 Spyder. Equipment level matters, as the sensor is only fitted to cars with the rain sensor option. Fitment varies by model, variant and production split, so confirm by VIN with the European Autospares parts team before ordering.

Yes. This listing is for the genuine Porsche rain sensor under OE part number 99161510801, which supersedes 99161510800. Porsche parts catalogues list this exact number as the rain sensor in the windscreen wiper system. It is a new genuine part, not an aftermarket sensor or a used electronic unit.
Porsche catalogue diagrams list this sensor for the 911 (991), the Boxster and Cayman including the 718 models, and the 918 Spyder, on cars equipped with the rain sensor option. Equipment and production date decide fitment, so send your complete VIN to our parts team and we will confirm before you order.
Typical signs are automatic wipers that do not start when rain falls, wipers running at the wrong speed for the conditions, or intermittent operation with no rain present. Check the sensor bonding to the glass first, because a lifting adhesive film can cause similar behaviour before condemning the sensor itself.
This is a brand-new genuine Porsche part. It is not a used or salvaged electronic unit taken from another vehicle. A new sensor avoids unknown history, moisture damage and degraded optical surfaces, which is important for a part that reads rainfall through the windscreen glass.
This brand-new genuine part is covered against manufacturing defects, and your statutory consumer rights apply in the UAE. If the part arrives damaged or is incorrect due to our error, we will replace or refund it. Please confirm fitment by VIN before ordering, because electrical parts vary by equipment level and production date.
