Best HID upgrade
Hello All,
I am looking for suggestion on the best solution (combination of price and ease) for upgrading my factory headlamps to HID. I have started to look at different websites, but I think other members' experiences are invaluable when looking for upgrades. If you can include pictures, that would be considered a major bonus!! Thank you, and Happy Holidays... |

Yes. Tore's T-lights. I just installed these. Simple installed.
Tools needed: 1. Drill bit to enlarge the opening 2. Needle nose pliers 3. 8mm socket to remove and replace the front bumperettes 4. Phillips head screwdriver 5. Moist towel to wipe things down inside https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...bb70651648.jpg |
Ok, thanks to you both. Looks pretty easy. The only thing I hope I can find is the radio's security code. I think it is with the owner's manual. I'll have to check.
I ordered the kit and got the RL discount, not too bad! Happy Holidays! |
Tore makes a great upgrade and his service is awesome. Can't go wrong.

x2 for Tore's products.
I got his HID upgrade as well as the full LED running lights/brake lights/turn signals. Great quality products, and great service too! |

I agree Tore's HID kit, Plus the Projector lens up grade kit from the https://www.theretrofitsource.com/mo...rsche-993.html. The difference is night and day when getting rid of the stock projector lenses. https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...66bd0b7c0a.jpg

You are welcome! Radio code? Crap. Was I supposed to un-hooked the battery? I just shut the car off and pulled out the lights. Snap!
Projector Lens upgrade. Super cool and I've not seen this before. Nice wide projection beam. Any pics of the install? As simple as the lights themselves? https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...f2e4746e04.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...9605ee3d9a.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...7a87927615.jpg |
Inexpensive: Any of the ones on eBay with the slim ballast will work and fit completely inside the lamp pod, however the wires to the bulb are a little long with these kits so it gets a little messy in the headlight pod. You will need to trial light up the bulbs as some come DOA out of the box. Installation is completely reversable.
OR Tore: A bit more expensive but tailored for a cleaner 993 install and should work out of the box. Can you chose wisely? Andy |
