anyone reuse oem amber corner trim with litronic headlights?

I'm not a huge fan on clear corners, and was wondering how this setup would look like. It seems like everyone swaps the corner trims for clear pieces.

Ummmmmmmmmm……I have never seen amber corners on Litronics. My two personal cars both have clear corners (factory Lits), and I have three cars in the shop, all with Lits and none of them have amber corners.

You need to remember that the amber in the parking lights section of the Lits in inside the light, the parking light lens is clear……..



Plus the only corners available from Porsche, to my knowledge, are either clear corners with headlight washers, or clear corners without headlight washers.

Correct me if im wrong, but your car is a retrofit litronics because factory litronics get defacto headlight washer and your's dont.

Yes like the OP asked, this is a case where the previous owner reused the amber triangles after retrofitting the car with litronics. Obviously Porsche didn't let a car leave the factory like this.

Not true, my factory installed LITS came with amber corners.
