I'm sitting here in my home offices surrounded with Porsche parts including a complete extra IceShark headlight harness and ground strap.... this thing is a work of art! I will put this one into my 968cab when I get a chance, and I am sure that with those great 968 Bosch reflector lenses and the Iceshark harness the lights will be great.
I installed the Iceshark Full Boat lighting kit in my 951S last year and never regretted it one bit. Having said that however, my son's 85.5 NA with the Bosch H4 (55/60W Osram bulbs) is pretty good - I'd say 80% of the Iceshark Full Boat setup and a LOT better than the OEM sealed beams.
If price is an issue, try the Bosch H4 setup - pretty decent lenses, reflectors but get good 55/60W H4 bulbs. As some one said above - you can always remove the Full Boat kit from the car when you sell it, etc. and put it into your new ride. It's well worth the $385 (price may be up now as component costs went up). The Iceshark harnesses are so good that I ordered the complete alternator set to go along with the Full Boat and Ground strap kit I have in my 951S.
These cars are getting 15+ years old now, and you don't want to have an electrical overload start a fire in the harness. So watch what loads you put on the car.

I have the Iceshark headlights on my 951 and the build quality and performance of the product he supplies is quite l iterally second to none.

Randy, I know your son's headlights are no where near 80% of what you have. Trust me, it is physics.
But everyone has an opinion, and let it go at that. I know you are happy with the stuff you got.
