I did all three.

the rear: Ebay used OEM $150 saved about $50

the front: went with Litronics(aka HID) $1100 on a Porsche Pete's Boxster Board Group buy with Brandywine. Not too impressed with bang for the buck. This definitely would have been a bottom of the list upgrade. Installation was a piece of cake. The whole unit slides out and in goes the expensive lights. A ball end hex key from Pepboys adjusted the height of the lights and that was it.

Before the Litronics I had a set of Clear Halogens from a 911 (non-Litronic) that I picked up for $500 and the clear corners were $45. Also not cheap but if you sell your amber headlights (the whole unit has to removed) you can get a $100 for them on Ebay, so $400 for clear headlights is bad but not $1100 bad.

The side markers were OEM $30 from Eagleday.com so going aftermarket is not really a good idea for these given the low price.
