replaced ugly headlights on my 996
My 99 C4 restoration is coming along and the next item on the list was replacing the horribly faded and burnt halogen headlights . I started watching various forums for a set of used bi-xenon and earlier this year scored these . They are in great shape even the rubber gaskets are near perfect . Real happy with the transformation . Another item knocked off the list
. Here are before and after pics from yesterday . ![]() ![]()

Thanks . The difference in person is stunning . My plan is the refurbish the faded headlights and convert to LED with the Retrofitlabs kit . All in due time .

If you place clear-bra (PPF) over the plastic headlights that will keep them from yellowing from sun damage.

I prefer to just hit them with wax every month or so. Previous owner parked outside . I park inside so shouldn't be an issue .
