Not the case on the x96 cars. The light projected it actually pretty decent.

I want to sell my litronic lights that are awsome, why I sell them is because they dont have automatic leveling and its law on it in Europe.

Freight cost to US 100 USD, hit me a PM with offer!

Dale Gribble

NOBY,
thanks for the offer. I'm looking to do the litronic's later in the spring, i want to change aerokits first.
i'm just sort of guaging price and options rite now.

also, you can reactivate the leveling feature if you do the wiring. there is a guide up on renntech i think.

NOBY

Huh? Never heard that there is possible to activate automatic level, thought when they dont have then they dont have it.

Can you pass me the link?

I added Litronics to my car myself. Did this in 03 maybe, prices were much lower then. Would have a hard time justifying it now, but even with the relatively high price it really changes the character of the car for me. Visibility is wonderful and installation is a breeze since they just slide right in. Furthermore, and for me the best part, it really dresses up and updates the front end of the car. If you actually take time to closely inspect the litronic assemblies, they are meticulously detailed and beautifully adorned.

do the litronics have any orange in their indicators?
i have the clear 99 halogens, but even still tehre's some visible orange in the lower part of the headlights that just drives me insane. it looks disgusting.

Clear lenses with orange lenses behind. I like it because it still looks factory to me, where as clear/clear has more of a 'tuner' vibe. It's a perfect companion to the Porsche white taillights and clear sidemarkers.

As I've implied, I'm familiar with the cheap HID "systems" and my point stands. Looking at the pictures on the thread you referenced only reinforces my opinion--the light is scattered ("bleeds") all over the place, which is why a lot of people think that HID lights are too bright. It's not that they're too bright, it's that they weren't designed to be used in a halogen headlight assembly. Look at a Litronic headlamp versus a halogen headlamp on a 996. There's a reason they're designed completely differently, and it makes all the difference in the world. If I aimed my other car's HIDs into the garage in your thread, you'd see how incredibly sharp the cutoff is.

Get the cheap kit if you want everyone to know that you're rich enough to afford HID headlamps. Get the Litronic kit if you want to be able to see better.

But that link doesnt say anything if its possible to wire up that the automatic level starts to work.

Can someone confirm this is possible?

NOBY

Can someone confirm that this is true, that its able to reactive the litronics so they will have automatic adjust leveling?

There is no automatic leveling for the Litronics Retrofit Kit. For 1999-2001 cars to have automatic leveling the Litronics have to be installed at the factory. I have a friend in the UK that bought the Litronics Retrofit Kit but kept his old halogen headlights because he has to put those back on when he takes the car in for MOT inspection -- the retrofit kit will not pass inspection.

NOBY

Okey thanks, that is what I also thought.

I agree....and I am going to do it. I found DPS has the best prices on the lights.....1500-1600 pr
Anyone else have a cheaper supplier?

Dale Gribble

why did these kits go UP in price?
shouldn't they go down with age?
