993 Headlight Replacement
Thanks Rennlist for your feedback! I cannot recall where I first read about the 993 headlights. It may have been in Parts for Sale. As I am restoring my Targa, I decided to go with new headlights vs headlight lenses. The best price for OEM Suncoast was $750 a side.
My old lights are Bosch. I understand that Automotive Lighting now makes the headlights. After some research, I purchased two headlights (Right and Left) from a California company Importec sales@importec.com (No affiliation but highly recommend based on this experience). Total cost was $970.84 and no tax plus free shipping!! According to what I have learned, these are the same lights but without the Porsche Part Number.
My shop installed today and the fit is tight but very good! Also, I expect to sell my old Bosch lights and ship in the same packaging to anyone if interested. $400 Each and I will pay for UPS ground.
Pics below are old lights and then new lights.

Old Lights
Here are pics of the lights out with the covers removed. They are in great shape for being 20 years old.
