anyone reuse oem amber corner trim with litronic headlights?

I bought my 2000 S used in Utah. Litronics were not on the options sticker under the hood so I'm pretty sure it's not factory installed like JFP says. The previous owner probably bought a set of Litronics and just reused the amber triangles.

CasualCarnivore, interesting. Are you the original owner of the car?

No, I'm the second owner of the car. The option code for the LITS is on the sticker so it was factory installed. These Litronics came without headlight washers.

I would be willing to bet the previous owner broke the tab off the clear corners and replaced them with the (less expensive) amber ones. Porsche would not let a car roll off the factory line with such a ridiculous looking clash in the front end design.

I understand not liking clear corners on a civic where the corner light is a whole separate assembly that wraps independently around the side of the car, but on the 986, it is integral to the headlight. It's like painting a white spot on your black hood because you don't like black cars.
