I had the OEM self leveling lamps in my Boxster and in the 6 years I had the car they never actually leveled (they always put on a nice show when I started the car but that was it).
Now on my 997 I can see the self-leveling in action.
My point is: I wouldn't spend extra $$$ just to get the self-leveling
However: Xenon (Litronics) is a HUGE plus over halogens

So huge enough to pay 1500 bucks or where else could you spend it? Sound, suspension, exhaust, seats etc.??

What about something like those? Personally I think they make the car look ALOT newer.
Yeah, those are on my thoughts too but by the time you add xenon your up to about $1230 and I have no idea of the quality...if you go oem you know it's good.

In for a penny, in for a pound. I'd pay a little more for the extra lumens. Leveling or not.
I guess I need to remember this is my tinker toy, have fun blow some cash and stop analyzing it to death...the trouble is answering to the wife too. This will likely cost me two new doors on the house
