2022, I'm looking on purchasing a 987 2008 Boxster and I was thinking: "If I buy it, I will get these Spyder headlights"... wow, thanks for sharing this, these are expensive and cheap at the same time

Thank you! I have looking for some 4 point lights for mine, and thought these might be close... SO GLAD YOU MADE THIS REVIEW! these are not at all what I am looking for! And as far as opening the stock headlights, I used to do this for some friends with WRX headlights to remove all the amber reflectors and paint some of the chrome... we would bake them in the oven at 250 for 15 min, the glue would be soft enough to open and then when we were done, bake them again to re soften the glue and spread it out, and then squish it all back together. Did 4 cars that way, never had any fog or moisture get in any that I did. But a friend of mine did his, and he got fog inside his lense on rainy days. My guess is that he was not as anal as I am when I do it, I make sure all the glue is soft, and 100% around the edges. It can be a pain to work with, it is like hot black tar, and you will ruin oven mits! 😆

I bought xenon version, installed oem xenon bulbs in them by a car specialist and I didn't notice any difference in performance when comparing them with oem headlights. It's a bi-xenon system with additional halogen bulb that helps with the long beam (the same system is in the stock headlights). Regarding the halo ring- it's the same led pattern as in the Turbo model, maybe not as bright but pretty similar. I agree that rubber edges are not perfectly aligned but I got that fixed, now it's 90% fine. Interior of the headlight housing is not perfectly finished, but it's OK, even in the stock headlights you'll find some imperfections (a bit less tough). Clear coat on these is not perfect- coat started to peel off after three and a half years but that can be solved by sanding and by putting a new clear coat.

Search videos of disassembly of headlights by putting them in the oven. Thanks for the genuine feedback as I have been looking at these as well.

Someone else mentioned this, but that you can't do it with the Cayman headlights since it would damage them. Apparently you *can* physically cut them apart, I'm going to look into this.

easy to modify these with proper LED strips in the ring and swap out those ugly turn signals with a flat orange led strip with a black or white background.

It's worth noting that Porsche currently has a so-called 'four-point' LED driving light headlight graphic. The 991 has pretty much the same design - a ring with four prominent light sources.
@CliffsGarage

It's really like just four points. I've seen the Porsche design and trust me, these headlights look like a VERY cheap imitation, not in the same class at all.

Unfortunately, it appear that everyone is selling the exact same headlight, they often use the same photos. Once you know what you're looking for, they all have the same four bright points.

Making great progress cliff ! Love following the channel have the same car but stock. One thing you really don’t want to buy aftermarket are headlights though

Well, I'm not a purist that feels like you have to keep the car all-original. I just think that many of the "upgrades" out there are just tacky and have a "Fast & Furious: Mid-life Crisis" feel to them. I still want the blacked-out headlight look, I think that is a genuine upgrade.

I retro fit my 911 headlights. Heat will separate the lenses from the housing.
@CliffsGarage
@CliffsGarage 2 года назад
Interesting. What model year of 911 headlights did you use?
@nicet2
@nicet2 2 года назад
@@CliffsGarage I had a 99' 911. I converted the headlights to LED. The glue used to hold the lenses on can be heated and pulled apart. I used a heat gun on low and applied heat until the parts separated. I heard some people are putting them in an oven.

As far as I can tell (from the AKKON website) they don't make headlights for any models of Porsche.
