My fist question as a new member. Hopefully someone knows about Boxster lights.

I need to replace both headlights on my 1997 Boxster. The inner lenses are yellowed, melted, and cracked. I suspect the earlier owner used the wrong bulbs. Sad, as the rest of the lights are perfect.

The dealer's computer says his computer shows no Boxster lights with the leveller tubes. Is that true? The ones presently in the car have levellers. And the owners manual shows levellers. But most shown on e-bay lack them. Confused. Were the levellers just on 1997s?

Also, is anyone aware of what years had amber turn signal lenses versus what years had ever so slightly darker orange lenses.

Any input would be appreciated.

Mike.
