This got to be the best after market headlamp unit I have seen by far !
Maintains the profile of the original unit with the bevelled lens on top and it looks like my Xmas present.
Tail lights seem like the ones on the Guntherwerks. Well executed, though i prefer the smooth profile of the original tails.

I like both of these items. They are not for everyone, I am sure, but I will always be a fan of being able to see and be seen better in a car. Dark is bad...
They aren't on my immediate "must have" list as I am looking at some spend for a suspension update this winter, but maybe next year.

I'll also go against the grain on this one - LED headlights on any cars are too bright for oncoming traffic, especially low sports cars.
I can see more than enough with HIDs, and I don't dazzle everyone coming the other way.
It's quite obvious that lights are too bright if you have to switch one off when that side's indicator comes on..........
It's becoming an arms race.

I like them. Cheapest I've found are on morimotos website or theretrofitsource. About 1100 for headlights and 1300 for taillights.

Definitely tempted for the rears. I have Tore’s kit installed for the fronts and don’t feel they need an improvement… yet.
Curious if anyone does a basket handle LED aftermarket product now that Bergville’s is unavailable. Would be interesting if morimoto did one to match this set.

I've had the Morimoto Retroquik bi-xenon kit for a few years and while great, this is tempting mainly as it would eliminate all the parts that are installed with the Retro-quik kit. I have also been tempted by the Flat 6 led headlights. I think that the LED projector options may likely have better lighting but given most of my driving in the 993 is during the day the bi-xenon may suffice for now. I'm undecided on if I like the angel eye look on the Morimotos....definitely not tempted by the rear lights

Looks neat, but not for me. Cleanest aftermarket version of the headlight, not at fan of Flat 6's version.
I think if I were Ollie, I would be annoyed (assuming they were the original ones who made that style tail light)

those taillights look horrendous, both here, on the guntherwerks and the ones Olli makes. They're just ugly.
Headlights are ok...hard to tell from the pictures if they changed the shape of the lens or not.
RUF is also selling their headlights and taillights from the BTR twin and Turbo R...and I am sure they would be higher quality.
I had the full morimoto kit on my car (old one not this)...it didnt work well at all...now I have Tore and just kept the Morimoto lense.

Concur with Churchill...
Get Tore's LED bulb kit for front and rear parking, directional, backup, brake, tail lights. I added his amber bulbs to the rear directionals.
All original look, just brighter, and the amber rear LED directional bulbs shine bright amber even through the existing red lenses- not referring to his HID headlight kit.
