Sorry...you'd have to basically buy new headlights (either clear halogens like the ones found on 03-04 Boxsters/99-00 Carreras), or buy the HID Litronics. Cheaper way than buying new from dealer is to just get a used set on Fleabay. They should cost you around $900 for a used set or $500 for a used set of clear halogens.

On my 01, I first bought a set of used 03 clear headlights for $450 from a fellow who upgraded to Litronics, and then ended up getting my Litronic HIDs from a friend who traded in his car, so he let me swap out my halogens for his Litronics for free. Now that's the cheapest way, of course!

The Litronic HIDs really are a nice improvement over the yellow halogen beams.

Good luck.
