I haven't seen their product in person, but would guess that it's not quite going to match up to factory fit/finish. Also, if you were looking to upgrade to an LED headlight, their advertising can be a little misleading. They are LED in the sense that the parking lights and turn signals are LED bulbs, but the headlamp itself is a projector.

"The projector beam headlights will produce a sharper, more focused beam of light for safer driving at night, the bright LED lights will make your vehicle more visible to other drivers, and the LEDs and custom headlight housing will give your ride an exclusive, unique look. more details on - http://www.carid.com/2006-porsche-cayenne-headlights/spyder-projector-headlights-78513177.html"

CarID doesn't have a great reputation, but I have to say that probably the only thing that really dates the 955 version is the headlights. Plenty of people ask what year my car is, but I don't think anyone would say it's newer than 2009 given the lack of LED DRL and the general appearance of the headlights.

A good solution would certainly be appreciated. Kamair, how about you try it out and let us know what you think?

I have them. Fit and finish is close enough to the stock headlights. Especially my ten year old faded headlights. Don't think I could stomach 1k for them though.

May I ask where you got them for a lot less than 1k?

Thanks!

A set for sale for $449. I definitely won't be a buyer.

I'm reading on the listing that they fit only factory Xenon models, can someone confirm or debunk that? The listings on Aliexpress makes it sound like you can choose.
