Last question and then I will leave everyone alone for a while...
A clear halogen 986 headlight assembly for an 03-04 boxster- will I have any trouble fitting this onto my 2000 S?

No fit problems at all. They slip right in.

I bought new ones on eBay which was well worth it IMO. I figured if I was putting in such nice projectors, I wanted the rest to be new as well. Of course others have done very well polishing their OEM's. Mine had the amber which also influenced me to buy new.

Community assist, wow, you guys are the greatest. Particle, jpc763, Bruce!
Apologies for having missed your questions 2000986s. You are lucky bud, looks like you got taken care by the best here. All that was said is all very true!
Right. (Out of context) the reason I am stuck and not doing these headlight kits at this very moment is because I am pitching for a massive contract that I NEED badly. Its for a OEM motorcycle manufacturer (giant!) out off Japan. Like I said I desperately need this pitch to go in as it will keep me busy here for the next 10 years (3 new upcoming motorcycle models). I've completed 6 samples out of the ten they require and hopefully be done by this coming Friday along with RFQ, NDA, inspection reportrs, and all other paperwork. The rest will be waiting with my fingers crossed really :/ Nasty stress I tell ya.
Taking orders: If anyone needs a kit urgently (we have for sure 11 guys who keeps a heartbeat with me here) what I can do is get 12 kits ready by next week to at least take care of our friends here. If anyone else needs a kit, now is the time to send me a PM and I'll slip you in. I'll start those this weekend and they will be ready the following week.
Price is $355 shipped (members price; they worth $12,875 in reality lolll)
As said previously, I have parts for little over 180 kits ready so this will be assembling right after those 12 kits. If you prefer and happy to wait for me, by all means do

We offer them with the magical (and illegal) Porsche Motorsports scripts (temporarily) ATM. Anyway, for those 12 that I'll do for you chaps anyway. So....
Charles (aka Particlewave) still install them, he was lying a few posts above. PM him if you are lazy doing them yourself. He is by far the most experienced person in this world who will do those in a flash for you (electronics/relays included)

If you can sweet talk Charles to do the modifications, it is well worth it! He did mine and they came out perfect!
Fred, good luck with getting the contract, I have no doubt you will

The CCFL's are rated at 30,000 hours. Mine have been in for a couple years and have not burnt out or shown any signs of dimming.
LEDs don't have the soft and solid line look of these. LEDs can also be of questionable quality. When one single LED burns out, it looks terrible. With these, I have 2 bulbs that can burn out vs a couple dozen LEDs. The CCFLs are also low cost and take very little time to replace

Litronic are perfectly fine headlights. Quality stuff for sure, seen them many time. Similar performance, I just can't possibly 'say publicly' which one win sadly 
Have a spare set of headlights here with gunmetal Turismo w/ white angel eyes. That's what going in the car this summer!!! I'll take a few new pics & 4K vids with my new GH4... sure will make you regret your Nikon if not the headlights haha
