Headlights OEM Porsche or TYC
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 got all my lenses from Rock Auto. They look great and the tyc headlights came with new bulbs.
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.
In my experience the TYC headlights I've used have been pretty bad. Beam pattern is scattered all over the place and fit and finish is sub par.
Just got my Honda Odyssey out of the body shop after an accident and they replaced my left headlight with aftermarket (TYC) brand. For context, the vehicle has factory auto leveling HIDs. The cutoff is not as sharp as the OE and the peripheral beam pattern has a lot of hot spots.
