993 lights in the 964?
Has anyone attempted to do this?
I searched but nothing came up.
964 = bad lights at night etc right?
The 993 has projector headlights which we could legally fit xenon lamps in, yes/no?

I don't think it would work and even if they physically fit, the 964 light bucket is fare more straight than the 993. They would aim the ground. I presume you have the H4 but what kind of bulb do you have ?

On the other hand, a 964 owner could fit a set of those cool headlights that the Singer has.
As noted above, the 993 front bucket angle is shallower than the 964's, and forced the engineers to do a complete re-design of the lens and reflector. The low beam lens / reflector unit is compatible with HID's, but not the high beam. The stock H1 low beam is not really adequate to the task, so the HID upgrade is popular.

I have ~3 more photos of this 964 I can readily share. Let me know if you'd like to see them...
Thanks in advance for posting more pictures. That car looks very interesting.

No, the rear bodywork of the 993 is very different. I was taking apart mine a couple of weeks ago expecting to find everything practically the same as the 964 but it is not at all alike. Even if you just compare the two cars side by side, the 964 tail lights are much lower.
