Porsche Boxster 986 1999 2004 Headlights Front Lamps Pair LH RH | eBay

Hi...I have a white '98 boxster. I already changed the rear lights and now looking at changing my headlights because they are already very yellow. Do you have a photo of your car with the new lights you bought from eBay? They are a good price and I want to see how it looks like if you don't mind.

Thanks in advance!

Shameless plug:
I have a set for sale in the Classifieds section. Here is the link:

They're in good shape and come with the corner pieces (one corner piece is cracked).

I can't give you any more details, as I opted for the 986.2 (clear turn signal) lights rather than try to get the xenon lights.

So, you think they still work properly w/o the litronics?

zehutiman, in other threads it's claimed that they do work, without the advanced functionality (leveling, moving the low beam to reinforce the high beam). I don't have the link, but you can find it easily with a search, I think.

Reporting back, I can tell you that the 986.2 clear-turn-signal lights fit and work perfectly. I had my front bumper cover and hood resprayed because they had 110,000 miles of rocks and parking barrier scrapes. Looks like new now!

Had to unplug the DRL hack, though, because the new incandescent bulbs are too hot.
