It will be big different but not $1000 different because there are other projectors that is much better than the 996 or 986 made by Hella/Bosch. I suggest sending it out for retrofitting.

I don't own those HID projection headlight (aka Litronics) but I have experience in HID projection retrofitting. In the retrofitting world, german projectors (Hella/Bosch) are not very popular, a lot of people use them because they're cheap, but the two most popular brands automaker use are Koito (Lexus & Infiniti) or Stanley (Honda/Acura).

Some of the most notable OEM brand of projectors are the Honda S2000 (Stanley), Lexus SC430 (Koito), Nissan Murano (Koito), Acura TSX (Stanley), Lexus LS430 (Koito), and Acura TL (koito). Acura TSX projector is probably the most favorite projector used by many ppl; it's small, bright, easy to fit, and uniform,

You can get better projection system by going with retrofitting and might cost less than what people are selling the Litronics for. Honestly, I have owned many different Hella projectors years ago and they're sub-par to what the Japanese car are using.

More and more car company are using Koito (projectors) and Denso (ballast) on their car. I believe all Porsche uses those combination now.
