GT3 RSR headlamps

Anybody have a source for RSR-style headlamps? or know a shop that can do a conversion?

Thanks

I'm willing to bet they aren't DOT legal... much less intended for daily road use.

Looks like they use some sort of 7" round sealed beam light so you could probably just use a modern dot approved LED like I have on my Range Rover classic, the output is much better than the turbos lights, It would give you the same flat round look with an more modern twist. It would be really easy to fabricate. There is a lot of mounts for those lights, a very simple shroud(which I bet someone has) and attach the lens to the body work.

RSR lights available through Porsche Motorsport I think. Bit related to this, I asked few years ago if race spec projector headlights would be something as in the record-breaking Alzen Turbo but no interest, http://rennlist.com/forums/996-gt2-g...eadlights.html

Clear covers:

Actually, they have the halogen lamps too. FVD gave me a quote for parts to convert turbo headlights to RSR style if anyone is interested PM me.
