How to UPGRADE HEADLIGHTS on a Porsche 911 996.1 or Boxster 986 | Halogen to Bi-Xenon HID Conversion

This video shows you how to install a bi-xenon conversion kit from RetrofitLab into your Porsche 911 996.1 or in my case, your Porsche Boxster 986.1.

It is not a process for the faint of heart, but with this video you should be able to do it! The only instructional video provided by the company is not only incomplete, but it is wrong in places. Mine is a LONG video, but will show you everything you need to know.

No, I don't get a commission or anything from RetrofitLab if you order them, but here is a link to the ones I bought if you are interested:
