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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello I searched for this but did not find definitive answer, my low beam bulb on a 03 boxster litronics headlight went out, is the replacement going to be a xenon bulb or halogen, if xenon I presume its going to be this: Headlight Bulb - Low Beam - D2S Xenon, (12V - 35W) thanks, Bruce

POST 2Original post

assuming that all Litronics have HID bulbs, it's the xenon, not halogen. It's easy to remove the headlight housing, open the back and check the bulb to verify

POST 3Original post

Yes, low beam is D2S xenon 35 watt. High beam is H7 Halogen 55 watt.

POST 4Original post

I recently did mine and so far they are working just fine. I also did the LED fog lights, and with the low beams on, the Litronic's look great. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075MCTTC8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
