maybe you can get someone to take a pic of your car and use photoshop to see what the WRX lights would look like on your car!!! if you can make that happen; i'm sure most of us would love to see the outcome of that photoshop!! good luck John!

Thanks but I don't even have fenders on my car right now, I should be getting a pair some time in the near future ( like 6 months or so) then I could see about the photoshop thing, but its a good idea any ways!

[QUOTE=vujade]First off do you mean 996 or 993 because there were no 2003 993's made.


If you meant 993, then there is a guy in North Carlona that has grafted 993 headlights into his beetle. & I have also seen one guy in Europe that has grafted them into a ghia too.


I am the guy from NC with the 993 headlights grafted into my GL fenders. The main problem is that the rear housing of the headlights are large & protrude into the fenders well past the stock buckets which were removed. A second set of fenders were used to mount the headlights out an 1" ahead of the original location which actually looks pretty good. Also the headlights had to be mounted at the angle of the original 66 headlights otherwise the backs of the headlights would have been angled down right into my 18" wheels. I believe there is enough internal adjustment in the headlight bulbs to compensate.

Well done BTW, great times!

Marco, love that subtle air intake under the bumper, that feeds the rad, or an oil cooler? He takes great pictures doesn't he? Very sharp..
