vs
Headlights OEM BMW or OEM Porsche

I enjoy the wedge-look of my 944 when the headlights are down. I don't mind the look when they're up, but they just look better down.
The novelty was cool right after purchasing the car, but now I'm more worried about something breaking with them and having to pay a big repair bill for something pretty simple.
Pros: enjoys wedge-look
Cons: worried about breaking

I went for a 996.2 for the Turbo style headlights... but those fried eggs kinda look good on the GT3!
Pros: look good on GT3
Vehicle:
Porsche
I like how the amber part gives the impression of the cut line for the hood flowing around to the fender.
Pros: flowing cut line
Vehicle:
Porsche Cayman
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.
Pros: undeniable 80's look

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.
Pros: illuminates long distance, astounding angle

I tried/am trying to fit a set of E36 lights into my jetta. They are a bit wider, and shorter than the stock headlights. You would need a hood spoiler to fill the gap above the headlight, you would need to make a custom spacer to fill the gap between the headlight and the fender, you would have to cut up the headlight, the radiator support, and part of the inside of the fender. I got one light to \"fit\" and it looks pretty dope, but it doesn't fit the contour (sp) of the car, they are more square and flat than the stock lights. Oh and you would have to make the brackets to mount the lights to the car. Quite a PITA for something that looks kind of cool, but doesn't quite fit right...
Pros: looks pretty dope
Cons: doesn't fit contour

Volkswagen Jetta
I have a 2019 M240i that gets condensation inside
the driver side headlight when it gets very wet (in a car wash or a very heavy rain- not so much in a light rain). This doesn’t really happen on the passenger side. I saw your response to the other person where you said this would be covered under warranty.
Cons: condensation inside headlight

I prefer the 987 front end to my 986 fried egg headlights.
Pros: prefer 987 front end
Cons: dislike 986 headlights

Man, i hate those type of headlights. They fog up, they leak, they break and they look cheap.
Cons: fog up, leak, break
Vehicle:
BMW
they look like crap imo. too many gaps on the side, top, bottom etc... they just don't look like they belong. that and you have to bootleg the install just to hide everything. shouldn't have to be like that. keep it clean.
Cons: too many gaps
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Corrado
