I have never seen a 996 headlight taken apart and did not realize you could remove the "chrome part." It has a diamond pattern to it. That is how I can tell the difference between 996 clears versus 986 clears just by looking at them, and why I asked you to verify by comparing the part numbers
For some strange reason when the 986 got clears in 2003 Porsche did not use the 996 clears, but came up with a specific 986 clear headlight without the chrome part.
The chrome part is also used in litronic headlights. But in the case of litronics they are the same for 996 and 986, both come with the chrome part.
In cases like this I do not understand Porsche and why they did not take the 996 clears from the parts bin and use it on the Boxster in 2003. It is like how they have the same muffler and the only difference is cosmetic, a single or dual tip, to distinguish the base model from the S model.
