Default 992 Style Headlights with DRL

I just ordered these “992 style” headlights for my 2009C4S can’t wait to install. Full LED, comes with the whole assemblies for both sides.

Cypher Vehicle Design has some pretty cool exclusive designs and is a dealer for these headlights. Great Black Friday pricing right now.

I had Morimoto headlights and taillights on my C6 Corvette and have nothing but great things to say about the quality and functionality. Link below

I just added Right Hand Drive (RHD) on website listing as option for $0. It will allow me to record a place for you in line. At time of announcement of RHD availability - I will send you an invoice.

Any comparison shots to the 997.2.

Morimoto only compared it to the 997.1 which is a huge upgrade. How much of an upgrade is it compared to the newer 997.2

Same question for their future tail lights.

Thanks

My car that I am using for marketing is a 997.2 GT3 (the white car) - new headlights are a huge difference. the new lights are full LED …

tail lights … too early to discuss.

The dynamic function for the 997.2 cars will not work with these lights? From what I see, the led replacement only has one bulb for both high and low beam? Please correct me if I'm.wrong

they are exactly the same. TRS and Cypher are both dealers for these headlights that are produced by Morimoto.

My website listing talks about this.
Up and down function will be maintained but not side to side. The beam however is very wide so it’s almost better as your don’t need to turn wheel to illuminate turn coming up (you’ll see it before you turn)


It’s same led for hi and low beam.

All LED

From the Morimoto website:

​​​​​​​BI-LED: The Morimoto XB LED headlights for the 997 come standard with a single high-output Bi-LED projector, again just like the OEM 992 headlights. Thanks to their uniquely shaped projector lenses paired with modern optics within, they're going to perform even better than they look. The full LED low and high beam are an instant upgrade over stock, with a wider, brighter low beam, and a high beam that will penetrate far into the distance with ease. To top it all off, these optics meet & exceed all
