The old parts are just sitting in may garage in the boxes from the new parts. Hadn't really made any effort to sell them. I certainly don't need them.

I don't have part numbers, but, I can help this way. On the Parts Geek site you just need to search for headlights as if your car is a 2003 Boxster. Then you can will get to this link. I had...

I bought them from parts geek. They are intended for the 2002 model on their site. However, they fit my '99 just fine. And yes, I had to order the triangles separately. I also changed out the side...

Clear Headlights - 99 986 base

Finally replaced the burnt looking amber headlights with new Magneti Marelli halogen clear headlights. Nothing new here, but, so satisfying after $900.00 and 45 minutes. I highly recommend. Sharing...

Do you mind telling me how you went about the de-amber process? I have a '99 bioxster and I would like to do the same. Mainly I am interested in the source for the headlights. thanks.

alrightee

Well thanks. I'll take your word for it. Kind of odd. I imagine that may allow for a better visual when braking perhaps.

What was confusing me was that there was a bulb in the socket. Maybe I...

Fog Light Bulb problem

I'd like to put this one out there to the community to see if anyone has any ideas. I'd appreciate it.

The fog light bulb is out in the passenger side tail light of my '99 Boxster. It's a p21...

Bridgestone pole position - very good

Heck, I'll chime in. I had Kuhmo's on my '99 when I bought it used. They were cheap hard tires that didn't have a lot of stick. They just didn't grip well. A tech told me they were cheap and lumpy. I...

cold top operation warning

I have a '99 and last year it was time for a new top. The plastic window cracked. The fabric was looking old. You really need to be aware of the dreaded cold top opening threat. I'm in Texas and it's...

nice details

Wow, now that's glossy. Where did you get the hard plastic body-color bumper blocks on either side of the rear license plate? I of course have the original matte black textured.

DFW folks

Let me know if you guys put together a DFW meet. I'm in Arlington. Not graphic design but 3D design is my trade. Once in a while I'll go to an autocross with a Honda s2000 club. It's a lot of fun....

I like it but I have to agree on the tail. Zeintec has a spoiler wing replacement that I am interested in. It's kind of subtle but not a dopey looking as the stock spoiler wing when raised.

off center

I just think the S looks to be off center. It's a little to the right. This will show up more now that the gemballa is below it on center. My two cents.

very nice indeed

I think it looks fantastic. But I am going with a 9 out of 10 until the amber comes off the tailights! Only seems fair with the front headlights in clear.

problem solved, not resolved

The problem is probably solved but not cured. It looks as thought the headlight pins will not connect fully to the female socket because it is indeed flexing. It's flexing a lot because half of the...
