thanks, the link is fixed. Complete plug and play. headlights popout with hex wrench in the toolkit (one fastener), and then unplug the light and the litronic headlight goes in the same way.

If you have Litronics, the non-Litronic lights will be plug-and-play.

I was under the understanding that the Lits on the Mk I 996 and all 986's are plug and play.
Is that not correct?

Personal Preference?
The Litronics are very nice in that they are much brighter than the standard haolgen units. You can get brighter bulbs but there is a danger of going with a higher wattage, so I wouldn't do that.
That being said, I don't really find the headlights on my 986 dim by any stretch of the imagination. I live on a county road with no streetlights so I do wind up using my high beams on the way home at night, but that's what they're for, right?
With the CTT, the funny thing is that the stock fog lamps are halogen and look very yellow in comparison to the litronics. One of the first mods I did was to change out to a "blue white" bulb on the fog lights.
There are a ton of other things I would do to my Boxster before going to litronics.
Current mods:
Upgraded stereo, rear speakers, new amp, etc.
Clear side markers
MP3 connector in glove compartment
"Sport" Exhaust System
Mods under consideration before litronics:
New front bumper/front grills
Racing seats, harness
Fire Extinguisher mount
Lighter Rims
"Big Red" brake package
3rd Radiator
V1 Stealth Mount
