Suggestion
If you buy used Litronics know that the upgrade wiring harness is about $200 if you buy it separate from the headlamps, so a set of new lights in a kit is often cheaper than used lamps at market prices plus new wiring.

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.

I want to update the amber taillights on my early 996 to clear units and replace the stock headlights w/ Litronic units. Anyone know of a source for these at discount (new or used from a dismantler).
TIA,

Coincidentally enough, you might also try Foreign Affairs Motorsports. They had an ad recently in the newsletter of the Goldcoast Region of the PCA for Litronics. I don't recall the price, but I recall thinking it was pretty good. Talk to Bobby at (954)746-0488.
Hope this helps,
Mike
The lowest prices I have seen are from Suncoast Motorsports. I have checked out ads on eBay endlessly and dismantlers barely match Suncoast's new price. If you buy used Litronics know that the upgrade wiring harness is about $200 if you buy it separate from the headlamps, so a set of new lights in a kit is often cheaper than used lamps at market prices plus new wiring. And Rennlist members get an additional break at Suncoast on most parts, I do not recall if the lighting conversion kits are already fully discounted.
There seems to be very little traffic in the clear rears used, the few sets I have seen have gone at higher prices than discounted new.
