Looks awesome, particlewave!
just wondering, when someone will mod them little trim corners to DRLs http://986forum.com/forums/uploads01/DRL1405158394.jpg ...so they would be useful finally :D |

When toying with design ideas, I was inspired by the Carrera dual projectors (1 larger, 1 smaller as seen below). Unfortunately, finding a projector lens smaller than those that we use proved very difficult and there is not much spare room in the headlight with these projectors due to their mount location. So, I combined the Carrera dual projector with the 918 4 barrel and came up with these. I went through countless combinations before settling on this. I tried many different ideas; even adding a second inner shroud to the headlight as seen below. The silver on white looked great in mock up, but not so much in the car. |
Those look good
I like the projects you do, everything looks classy or elegant to me. I always try to make my projects look as close to factory as possible, if you don't have time to do it right the first time how in the world will you find time to do it right the second or third time. What are the two smaller light assembly's on the side for ?
I cant wait to do this to a spare set of lights I have at home, hopefully the job interview will go good next week and I can get back to work so I can order some projectors. Again really nice work PW....really Nice...and 968 such classy hardware...very well made from the looks of it. Dwight |

Thanks again Dwight, and good luck with the interview! :)
I hope that you get the chance to upgrade your lights soon. The smaller lights on the side will probably be used as daytime high beam flashers. HIDs are powered by the low beam circuit and in low beam mode, there is a small cutoff shield that blocks half of the beam. When you turn your high beams on, a solenoid pulls down the cutoff shield, exposing the entire beam. However, since the HIDs are powered by the low beam circuit, when you try to flash your high beams with the headlight switch in the off position, only the solenoid is activated and no light is output. For this reason, many opt to leave the reflector chrome and keep the stock high beams on a relay so that when the headlight switch is off, the stock high beams are used for flashing. When the switch is on, the relay is activated, switching the high beam circuit back to the solenoid and rendering the halogen high beam inoperable. I wanted a blacked out reflector, so I may use these as the daytime high beam flashers. They are certainly bright enough. Here's another small teaser ;) Im still working out the CCFL DRLs and LED projectors. Waiting on parts... |
Again, sweet work coming from you Charles!
I'm not into weapons at all but what about filling one side-tube with a green laser for targeting, the other with a high caliber of some sort? Legal there? (had too much coffee today maybe dunno) |
I have these little bad boys on display as well... if one day you think of retrofitting for the third time. 9 parts of yellow for 1 part of blue! Polished lime green
