Headlights OEM Porsche or OEM Honda
Reviews
For headlights there a tons of options. Personally I went with an OEM style with black housings, but you can find a bunch on ebay. Just be prepared for the clearcoat to wear out on them after 3 or so years if it lives outside.
Pros: OEM style, black housings
Cons: clearcoat wears out
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
I’ve had people flash their lights at our new Honda because they think the high beams are on. I feel bad but what am I supposed to do? That’s how the thing came from Honda.
Pros: new Honda, bright lights
Vehicle:
Honda
My 996.1 is my first Porsche, and it’s consistently able to make me happy. Even the dumb lights are aging surprisingly well.
Pros: aging surprisingly well
Vehicle:
Porsche 911
That\u2019s crazing and is not from driving, is caused by heat and direct sunlight, happened to my 981 on a very hot week I left the car parked unused, one day they were perfect a week later they were exactly like yours. A professional detailer sanded the outer layer and polished it, I then added PPF and they were perfect again.
Pros: perfect again, added PPF
Cons: crazing, caused by heat
Vehicle:
Porsche
What’s up with the weak headlights? My 5 year old Pilot (also with factory LEDs) just light up the road way more, throw is farther, and output is wider.
Pros: farther throw, wider output
Cons: weak headlights
Vehicle:
Honda
Overall I like the new Prelude design, but the front IMO is the weakest element as this post highlights. Just not as clean as I think they could have done.
Pros: like the new design
Cons: front is weakest element
Vehicle:
Honda Prelude
Cpo is nice from an extended warranty standpoint but the condition of the car is ultimately up to the buyer to determine. There was a gt4 rs that a local SoCal dealer cpo’d with Chinese headlights, non oem hood, and a repaired mag rim.
Pros: extended warranty
Cons: Chinese headlights, non OEM hood, repaired mag rim
Vehicle:
Porsche
Have the same issue in a brand new cayenne. They said the problem is that I live in an area with humid weather and that they cant replicate the issue in the workshop and wont replace them. From what I have heard and read so far, it seems it is an issue with Porsche headlights.
Pros: issue with Porsche headlights
Cons: humid weather causes issue
Vehicle:
Porsche Cayenne
When driving my '18 Honda Civic i get flashed for having my high beams on pretty regularly when I don't.
Cons: blinding to others
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
Neighbors headlight stopped working on his $4950 for it woof. Replace the one on my Tundra that was bad $350. The Mecans do seem to suffer some issues with expensive to fix items like every other German SUV's.
Cons: expensive to fix
Vehicle:
Porsche
