Some local guys on the PCA Facebook page have installed those. They have complained about somewhat poor fit, and excess wiring/wrong labeling issues, but overall were pleased.

I think they look really great, and they do make the car look a lot newer.

Do you have a link to the vendor?

And yes, kudos for having the top down in the snow!

I actually think these look pretty nice. Exhaust sounds nice too.

Looks great
Yes of course, I bought a convertible for a reason!! Haha. I've even had the top down while it was snowing a few times. And thank you! I absolutely love how the lights transformed the car.

In terms of fitment there is just the tiniest of gaps around the top portion of the light housing where it meets the body panel. I wouldn't have noticed if I didn't have the oem light right next to it to compare. I didn't have any issue with excess wiring or labeling either as you can see from the video. Here is where I bought it from, the vender is Xtreme Motorcars http://www.vendio.com/stores/www.xtrememotorcars.com/item/car-truck-parts-tail-lights/porsche-986-boxster-718-style-/lid=48918322
