vs
Headlights OEM Porsche or Tesla
Reviews
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
Vehicle:
Porsche
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
Vehicle:
Porsche
I don’t know why, but I like them on the 996 but don’t on the 986
Pros: liked on 996
Cons: disliked on 986
Vehicle:
Porsche Cayman
That’s terrible, but I’m not surprised. The lens on my 992 cracked and Porsche wanted $6300 for a new headlight (they don’t sell just the lens).
Pros: new headlight
Cons: expensive, lens not sold separately
Vehicle:
Porsche
My indy Porsche mechanic told me they had to charge a Cayenne owner 3500+ to replace a headlight. He said even the headlight has a microchip now. Just unnecessary complexity.
Cons: expensive headlight
Vehicle:
Porsche Cayenne
Just had to replace both headlights for failed DRLs and one for no lamps at all at the tune of 1300. Her window regulator just failed so probably 300 for that.
Pros: Tesla didn't charge labor
Cons: headlights failed, regulator failed
I particularly hate the Porsche headlights with the 4 dots of light, they create a weird afterimage for several minutes.
Cons: weird afterimage
Vehicle:
Porsche
i swear, every single fucking tesla out there has misaligned headlights from the factory. it's not that other cars don't have this issue, it's that damn near every tesla blinds me at night.
Cons: misaligned headlights, blinding
