3m tape or silicon adhesive would work. My shop used 3m double-sided tape similar to this:

two side tape can be removed easily. If you want to be extra safe, then you can put a headlight film like Xpel over your entire light before sticking on the covers (that's what I did).

Regarding the pop-up washers, these can also be deactivated by pulling a single fuse. Information is in the fuse chart that should be in cover of your fusebox or in the manual.

 

Finally got mine on today! I had the old style covers before and these are SO much nicer!

 

Southern Man, your car looks great! Posting additional pics of the covers on a red and blue car in case people were curious

 

Don't those cover the turn indicators and the parking lights?

 

..

 

They do not cover the turn signals since they are integrated into the headlight itself. They do cover over the foglights. More information and pricing information on this thread:

I've never understood all the hate for the fried egg lights.

 

eye of beholder............. hey, some guys are "chubby chasers".............

 

I hadn't considered headlight covers until I saw Andrew's design. My wife purchased a set as an early Father's Day gift. I have to say that purchasing these from Andrew was a true pleasure. His communication was fantastic! Emailing with updates every step of the way keeping me informed of the progress. He sent pictures once the painting was completed and followed up with a tracking number once they were shipped. The fit and finish was excellent. I'm really happy with how they turned out. If you're on the fence I would say go for it.















I found that 100% silicone worked the best for attaching them. I tried 3M tape originally and didn't like the extra height it added. I would also recommend removing the lights for installation and sliding the cover as far forward as possible.

The covers don't obstruct the blinkers / hazards lights at all. See video.

 

They do look to be the best option on the market. I do like the solid colored ones better (pictured) so far.

 

I was torn. Looking pictures of 997s most have the gray trim around the headlights so I went with that.

 

Not a 996 owner any more, but these look far better than some of the other 'solutions' I've seen...

how about a picture at more of a flat angle to the covers, like from the side?

 

Didn't know you sold your 996. What did you get in it's place? This the angle you were looking for?

 

Not saying they look bad just an observation for my taste. I too would have ordered them that way until I saw the pictures of both.

 

Loved the 996 C2, but like to try different cars. Had a 987 Cayman S for a while, then a Saleen S281SC, now on the hunt for another Porsche... Cayman or 911.
