New Litronics = big improvement

[michael_dba]

Pair and control box/harness about $1400 (including the clear corners) delivered (FL to CA) from a Porsche dealer in FL.

I believe they're still selling them (pair with controls) at $1300 without the clear corners.

that is a great price for a new set of litronics. they should really advertise that more.
considering i sold my clear non-lits for $800 on the ebay. and used lits go for $1000-$1100 quite often.

i think i might have an extra high beam control module also. can't decide if i want to bother since i live in los angeles. light pollution, regular pollution etc. tholyoak, let me know if that falls through.

You're welcome.

I'm not sure if you're familiar with adjusting the headlights beam horizontally and vertically....the new headlights were WAY out of adjustment. It takes a little time using both horiz and vert adjusters to get them where they should be....turning the vert adjuster screw doesn't make the low beam go straight up or down, it actually raises/lowers slightly diagonally, so you have to go back and forth with the horiz to correct the left-right movement as it raises or lowers the beam. After a few minutes you'll see what I mean.

I like to "rough-in" the low beams height about even with the low beam projectors centerline at 25 feet from a wall. Then go out to a rural stretch of straight road and fine-tune them so that the top of the low beam is right at the horizon of the roadway. There is no glare to oncoming traffic. This way, when you turn on the high beams, the low beam projector is elevated (by the control modules "instructions" to the servo motor in the headlight) to a perfect height...points the light right where its most useful. The Litronics peripheral light output is outstanding...on a 5 lane highway you can see better than 30 feet past the shoulder on each side of the highway.
