header panel with fixed headlights
Ive seen the this panel in pictures but the contact that made it has not responded to my request to build one for my car since December. Is there any other source for this? Please let me know.
Thanks

Looks possible to have leaking issues too. Not to rain on your parade. Maybe check out these guys:

Those light sets from GT will work on 924s and 944s but not turbos due to the larger header panel design. Look at TMS951's fixed headlamp project to see what i'm talking about. He used hella HID xenon 50mm units 1 high beam 1 low beam. Slick result (I decided to use the same hellas on my project).

Here is the link:

Wish I could be of more help, the only other thing is to go for the Strosek 951 fixed headlight setup unless you want to have someone custom fab you up a setup like you have posted.
Best of luck.

Really? I had always heard that but haven't ever really measured the difference between them. So the 951's have a smaller center section to the header panel or something (as in wider headlights), or is it something else?
Here's the cheap fixed headlight I've come up with Link
I'm not finished with it yet but, as cheap as the components are it's worth a look though asthetically they might not be as pleasing to some. I just couldn't bring myself to shell out $750+ for some GT-Racing variants considering all of the horror stories I heard about poor fitment and quality.

Looks like Dukes setup- from what i hear they make their own stuff but wont do it for anyone else. I was thinking of making one like that- but from steel...
