I went for a 996.2 for the Turbo style headlights... but those fried eggs kinda look good on the GT3!
I like how the amber part gives the impression of the cut line for the hood flowing around to the fender.
Now, I do like the pop up headlights. I've always liked the undeniable 80's look about them and still get a warm fuzzy feeling inside every time I turn my headlights on and see them rise up.
I would get some Hella or Bosch smilies and order the euro connectors and wires, then splice into the harness. More expensive but well worth having the genuine lights.
Porsche has some pretty impressive headlights. The Cayenne I bought used had the technology package or something that included the HID headlights, so I don't know if that statement stands for their regular headlights. But, having had a couple of vars with HIDs now, the Porsche is mind boggling. Not only does it illuminate for a long distance, but the angle of illumination is astounding. With the brights on, I can see 50 feet off of the road on either side clearly illuminated to watch for wild life.
oem Hella is really the only way to go for quality. if you plan to order them, do it asap. They take quite a while to arrive and may have several delays, but the quality is worth the wait. When I ordered my Hellas I think I waited about 5-6 months. My depo brand ecodes went right on my garage shelf and have stayed there since.
I did the Hella H1/H4 upgrade versus going Euro lights years ago, mostly because of cost. I ran them as stock for a long time, then relayed them with a relay setup out of a car my buddy was parting out. The Hellas are awesome, serious light and the top cutoff is very well defined.
I had this on my f10 2014 535. I have the leds and it was 2400 for the headlight plus 500-600 each for the two control modules. You might be able to reuse the modules if the pins aren\u2019t corroded.
I prefer the 987 front end to my 986 fried egg headlights.
But the more-serious problem was the narrowness of the beams, particularly to the sides. Made it scary going around corners in the neighborhood -- my wife noticed the same problem. Plus there was a huge dark area directly in front of the car, short of where the projector beams started.
