The 2003-2004 Boxster headlights have 986 part numbers. They are not 996 parts.

Under the clear plastic cover 986 headlights have a pattern of lines. On the 996 it is a diamond pattern. Litronic headlights also have this diamond pattern. If I had a 986 and 996 clear headlight in front of me I could tell which is which from the pattern, and of course from the 986 or 996 part number on the back.

Other than the pattern they are the same. The pattern is cosmetic. But I think you would notice if the set was not matched.
