Is this litronic fixable?

I found a set of litronics for 300 a headlight, is this worth it based off a picture? Looks like it needs restored but is the yellow bit around the tip fixable or should I find another set

Up to you really if you think it's worth your time.

I have a 986 with Litronics and one without. Dont see what the big deal is, I dont think they are any better then standard headlights and I sure wouldn't go through the hassle of adding them to one not equipped to only get some of the functionality.

I actually agree, I wouldn’t add the stuff to do the leveling itself it’s mostly for looks that’s why I asked if it’s worth it. All said and done 600$ to buy them and I can sell my great condition halogens for 250 a light. Only costs 100$ to get a better looking light. Certainly wouldn’t be worth 1200 like some pay

If your existing are excellent why pay to downgrade? Just a thought

It’s not garunteed to happen just yet. I’m going to polish up the litronics and fit them and see how I like them. If I don’t like them there’s no reason I wouldn’t be able to sell them for a large profit they are going for 600 a light vs the 300 I paid. I have HID headlights on all my other cars so it’s just something I’m used to and I’m putting on a new updated bumper figured nows a good time to change up lights
