Sorry for the delay in posting pictures everyone. There were some internal rumors about being internationally transferred that caused me to put to the car on hold for a few weeks.

The headlights have been in for 3-4 weeks now and they run great. The only downside is that it does effectively eliminate the high beams. I'll wash the car tomorrow and get some pictures up before it goes into the shop to get new speakers installed.

Nice one guys, thanks x100! Really looking forward seeing your NEW boxsters' (frontend)

Mitch - funny you've noticed about the beam being identical if not better than factory xenon headlights. We've recently compared those high performance projectors (the same that you have) with the litronic on a 996 here to find out that they outperform those as well

And I still don't know why!!!

I fear to ask any more questions at the projector manufacturer here. I'm actually fearing that he'll rumble for another 45min about his angular data and otha R&D achievements RE 'elliptical' and 'improved optics' this & that. As much as I like learning new stuff, I won't get caught there again

I'm just so happy to hear it worked for you guys as well

John - I refund your shipping if you can shoot a link to the high resolution picture you'll take (of course DSLR, the one with the Zanzibar car under the Utah sunset shades). Not only I'll make it public and dirty, I want to print it out and keep it along a replica of your kit. It's plexi-glassed souvenir style mate.... all we do here is serious stuff lol
