Anyone knows where to get some of these headlights for 986/996?

That looks sexy! I want to go to there

these look even better than i thought I've seen them on ebay but haven't seen pics of them on anyones car. How hard were they to install/ any fitment issues?

so it uses a standard halogen bulb, without any lense to direct the light?
the round bit that looks like a HID unit is just empty plastic?

how well do they work at night?

Ok, to answer your queries

1. No fitment issues at all
2. Yep, it's the RHD version off eBay for $1099 shipped. I can't see any imperfections at this stage - but admittedly I didn't look very hard (why spend effort to look for something tiny that would make you unhappy)
3. The round things are projector lenses - but the lights only come with halogen globes. I have already switched them to HID bulbs - there is a very distinct cut-off/level to the beam. But my left-hand beam is angling slightly high. I will need to adjust the headlight mounting plate.
4. I will post some pics of what they look like lit up at dusk with the parking lights. Suffice to say, it's very "Audi-like" with the DRL LED look.

Did you get a chance for some night photos? I'd like to see how the DRLs and turn signals look
