Yep I like them. But at £75 without the lights there not cheap. Also from Germany so add VAT duty & Postage. If your reflectors are coroded it's very tempting though. Would look good with my spoiler! That cars an interesting colour. ![]() |

P & P will be extra, but £75 ain't bad! Edited to say this is at the bottom of the ad! 19% VAT is presently included in the listed price. If you have questions about this VAT, please contact the seller. The actual VAT requirements and rates may vary depending on the final sale. |

Some where on the net are instructions on how to make a set of GTS lamps. JJ is that guy you way still braking 924s or has he realised now that there's no money in it? |

I can't see how they can, as the shape of the turbo/S2 headlamp lids are different to the 924 and impact type bumper 944s. I did have the link for making your own once, but I seem to have lost it. (I think it may have been on the Titanic site?) ![]() |

Quite liked the rear glass replacement, if you lived somewhere hot it could be a godsend, not sure about visibility though |

Paul; that looks horrid It looks more like a Pill Box and there should be a gun pointing out the rear window |

I don't mind the look of it too much, but you must loose half of your boot space by fitting one of them. I also think that the standard glass hatch look better. As for the stuff on their site, most of it is horrid. I think some of the 924 stuff is quite nice, but I won't be ordering any bits from them for my 944. The GTS light kit is just about the best thing they do. |

I was thinking more on the lines of say Spain where the 924/44/68 got slated because of having too much rear glass area and turning into ovens and cars getting written off because that huge rear glass costs so much, new one over £2k? But on the looks I disagree with you Dave, it gives a Lambo/Fezza/Europa sports car look which I like, then again I like Cayennes ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Hi all I have been looking for a decent set of GTS headlight units in the past few years and have seen barely all kits available on the market fitted to Transaxle Porsches and none of them fitted precisely (btw, not even the OEM Carrera GTS units do) nor did it have some nice covers that exactly replicate the shape of the OEM metal headlight lid covers. That's why we decided two months ago to design our own high quality GTS headlight kit. The covers have been completely finished this weekend and look as follows: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() As you can see it is quite a complex shape, even the back of it is slightly curved. We will finish the kit in the next few weeks, it will be optionally available with Carbon Fibre Housings and will be a complete bolt-in upgrade including all bits and pieces... Cheers Beni |
