Aftermarket Headlight Fitment?
I received a set of aftermarket projector headlights for my '01 996 and am having a problem with fitment.
Here is the link: https://www.amazon.com/Projector-Headlights-Compatible-1997-2004-1997-2001/dp/B09RG732SF/ref=asc_df_B09RG732SF?tag=bingshoppinga-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=80264474951512&hvnetw=o&hvqmt=e&hvbmt=be&hvdev=c&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=&hvtargid=pla-4583863997569328&th=1 The problem is my OE lights are litronic and I have headlight washers. The litronic plug is different but the plug for the conventional lights is also present. Another problem is the headlight washers stick up and won't allow the new lights to install. So 2 questions: Will these lights work when plugged into the extra non-used receptacle for standard lights? The headlight washers will need to be removed, how is that done? Any help appreciated, thanks!

Considering that the people that bought them off Amazon say that they don't work, both questions are moot...................

With only one review it's hard to say if the part is junk.
Does anyone know if both the standard electrical plug and the litronic plugs both function in these cars? They are both present on my car but I have no idea how they are wired. The headlight washer can probably be removed so I'm not so concerned about that. Thanks!

Well they were a gift so I have to make it work.
After cruising the net I found the info needed to install these on my litronic headlight washer optioned 996. I saw no reason to remove the washers so I unbolted them, wrapped in foam and tucked them in the cavity. Lights then slid into the slots and locked down. Litronic connector was left loose. So far so good. ![]() ![]() ![]()
