I love my '01 996, but the '02+ nose and headlights are unquestionably sleeker and more attractive to me. My present headlights are yellowing and the laminate eroding anyway, so I figure I might replace the headlights and the nose with the newer style of both.
I'll probably buy the components on eBay and have someone other than Hoehn do the installation. Does anyone have any experience with this? Thanks.
im a buyer if you sell these headlights

2000 c2 tip,
127000miles
runs and drive perfect !!!

This is the control unit. There is a 4 wire cable that goes to each headlight. There is a connector on each cable. In the picture the connectors are in the middle because they have not yet been put on. When you select the high beams the control unit moves the xenon low beam up a few degrees to fill in with the halogen high beam.
The headlights will work fine without the control unit.
thank s alot ! that will help me !

You are missing the control unit. From the unit there is a wiring harness to each headlight with a plug on the end. This plug goes into the side of the headlight.
i know that the headlamps are all assembly (lights ballas ect)... there s the usual plug on the side,,, and the one missing is the one going in the ballas, so that the one for the control unit ?

i just both a pair of litronic headlamps from a 2001 boxter...now in my 996 c2 2000 it seams that there s a plug missing for the xenons ????? is it normaly there?

i use a pry bar to move the tensionner....i d ont think it s the right way to do it.....what it the right way...? doe s it take a special tool ? i did a reseach ...with no result.
ok i find someting in'' polyrib belt change'' but my 24mm bolt turn on itself with the 15 mm in the back so it s impossible to move the tensionner ...

Be happy the pulley failure didn't take out the alternator - many times it does.
Go through a few starts and stops and see if the ABS light clears. I have seen that before and sometimes you just need a few drive cycles.
its was time to change it belive me !!!!
thanks loren

If those don't work then either the serial number you gave me is wrong or your radio is in the 5% that my little program doesn't work on.
Try contacting your dealer or Becker. I know Becker charges for this service but some dealers will do it for free.
finaly got my code 5201

If you still have a "check engine" light I believe Autozone will read out the codes for you for free.
What appeared to be O2 sensors in my car ended up being CAT converter with a big loss of power at the top end.
there s no ratle,the car response is good at all rpm range,the variocames kick s, it look like a 996 tiptronic in good shape run s arond 14.2 sec for 1/4 mile. so im not that far.

What Is the error code for the check engine light?
it s the o2 sensor,but wich one ,i dont know ? there is four of them i think. the code for it ,i dont know,its the privious owner that did the diagnostics.

What was the weather like. I'm in Arizona, and I see huge performance decreases in the hot weather (according to my g-tech, when it is really hot out I can lose approximately 5 tenths of a second in my zero to sixty).
