I have HID, it's that bluish color, and when I turn on my lights they adjust, does that mean I have the litronics?

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

16 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Is $1600 a good deal for the litronic headlight kit for an 01 on turbo? Do it make a huge difference in the look?

POST 2Original post

used? kit? are they the whole headlights? $1000-1300 for lits complete - preowned in perfect condition

POST 4Original post

A bit steep in the price if they are used. I've seen used sets in good shape for under $1K. I think it makes a huge difference in the lighting at night!

POST 5Original post

+1 for much better than Halogens I had headlight issues for awhile and bought 3 complete sets - I almost pulled the trigger on some lits for $1000 and the rememebered I dont have an MKII

POST 6Original post

I've always thought the halogens in the car were pretty top notch.

Oh Ed, fu*ck me! I was reading this post and took a drink of Coke (the liquid kind!) and read the last sentence. I was barely able to swallow the Coke before I started laughing out loud! Too funny!

POST 8Original post

What do you mean: "by for an 01 on turbo" ? Are they for an 01 Turbo? if you car is a Mk1 they will not fit without changing the front fender.

POST 9Original post

I bought a used set for my 986 (same lights as the Mk 1 996) for less than $1k. That price sounds a little steep if they are used.

POST 10Original post

there never out there... were did u guys find them... $1k is a decent fair price for 5-7 year old hardware I guess..

POST 11Original post

Pete, They are out there all the time on e-bay (but they don't last for long). You just need to be patient and wait for the last second bid.

POST 12Original post

I have on 01 996 With Lintronics. Turning it into a club racer and don't need them would trade for regular and Some $.

POST 13 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

are they for a turbo or non turbo? Mine are non Turbo Also, I think I am confused. I have HID, it's that bluish color, and when I turn on my lights they adjust, does that mean I have the litronics? Are there only litronics and halogens? I was under the impression that litronics was an upgrade to the existing HID system??

Litronics, is just the Porsche term for HID headlights. It sounds like you've already got 'em.
