Another factor to put into the lens burn calculation is how often the car is driven at night, or with the headlights on. Many U.S. Boxsters are never driven in rain, snow, or night. I'm curious how often the burn occurs in places where DRL/headlights on is mandatory at all times. ?

DRL links

Thanks for the links, mikefocke and 78F350. I'm assuming in my '99 base, they go in the top of the air intakes, but don't inhibit airflow measurably.

78F350, I'll buy a full set of the cheapies for your car and mine and all the pizza and beer you can handle if you come over and show me how to hook them up without frying my car.

Ha, I already have a set, but haven't gotten around to installing them yet. Here's a quick pic this evening, stuck in place temporarily. This kind has the amber turn signal and DRL LEDs. Maybe I'll get around to it this weekend. If I do, I'll post my install.
