I want to swap my stock non-litronic headlight with a set of litronics on my 99 C2 cab.

Do you guys know if this is an easy install? I've been told that all I have to do is change it out and change a fuse.

Your advise is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

 

Yes, just plug them in, do a search, lots of info. on that subject.

 

Plug and play, it'll take you 5 minutes...

 

Newport -

Any more info on changing the fuse, which fuse? Call me! I might be able to meet you at CC to pick it up. I pm'd you my cell number.

Thanks,
Lord

 

Not sure if the fuse needs to be changed on a 996. Maybe it's the Boxster. I know I had to change it for the Boxster, but when I did the 996, I dont think I had to. It's the headlight fuse, and I think it has to go from 5 amp to 10 amp.....

Here it is from the Pelican article on the upgrade:
"don't forget to change the fuses!Fuses A9 and A10 need to be 15 amp fuses. Mine came that way, but it seems that some cars come with 7.5 amp fuses. I don't know why there's a difference, but Porsche's instructions are clear. Also field reports from others who have corresponded with me verify that the 7.5 amp fuses will blow. Change them now before turning anything on."

 

I ordered Litronics from Suncoast for my '00 Carerra. Kit came with good directions, fuses and transformers. Installation included a bit of re-wiring and an extra .75" hole needed to be drilled on each side bulkhead for additional wiring. Litronics snapped into the existing sockets. Took about 2 hours with the additional wiring. Fun project.
