Thanks. The headlights are one of my favorite mods' I've done so far.

A little update on progress. Re-greased the axles and put new boots on too. Boy that's a messy job! I also installed the 4 stalk and ran wiring for the OBC and oil pressure to the 996 cluster. Nothing too exciting so I didn't take pics. I did take pics of my 987 airbox install though. I kept hearing how the 987 airbox was so much better than anything aftermarket. So I decided to install one instead of using an aftermarket air filter that I had bought from a fellow member. The 987 airbox is far from a bolt in and probably should have read up on it more before going that route.
Here's the 987 airbox before modification.

It wouldn't fit without notching the bottom and trimming the intake horn. After some trimming and fiberglass/JBWeld/screws and gasket maker, the three bolt holes line up perfectly.

Not the prettiest, but won't be seen once mounted
