AC has organically grown since 2005 into a business with a well-defined specialty: Provider of air-cooled Porsche lighting parts, service and information based on knowledge gained as a serious collector with the ownership of 30+ air-cooled Porsches, including concours winners at major shows.

Our over-arching goal is to make a positive contribution to the air-cooled Porsche community by offering our fellow enthusiasts Best-in-Class parts and concours restorations at honest prices.

"Audette Collection is the best in the world for anything related to air-cooled Porsche lighting." Gerald Kroon, CEO Kroon Wire Harnesses , Netherlands

AC was the first to pioneer LED headlights for air cooled Porsches. We're proud to offer an extra layer of safety to night driving for our fellow Porsche enthusiasts. We offer a wide variety of models from budget priced to premium: Silver Series, Gold Series, Gold+ Series, and Platinum Series.

We work hard to source the best components as recommended by worldwide automotive lighting expert and AC Chief Lighting consultant Daniel Stern.

2/16/25 - We are winding down our Restoration services as the load is getting too heavy. If you have something you would like restored we recommend you act soon. Go here to contact us.

Restoration of authentic original lighting parts for air cooled Porsches is our heart and soul. We started in 2002 by restoring a number of parts for our personal collection of cars. We soon requests from fellow enthusiasts to restore their parts (there aren't a lot of people restoring early Porsche parts), and off we go.

AC Premium Bosch Logo H4 Headlights

There's a big demand for the original Bosch H4's and we restore a lot of them but they are getting more difficult to find. Bosch is no longer building them - the current ones sold by Porsche are built by AL (Automotive Lighting) in Czechoslovakia and the lenses are marked "AL" instead of "Bosch". Those are fine but we decided we could do a little better and get a little closer to the original Bosch's with a few significant improvements.

Restored Originals or High Quality Reproductions?

It hurts a little bit to say this. But after 25 years of restoring original parts it's become apparent that, unless you absolutely need originality, much better price performance is delivered by new Best-in-Class reproduction parts. So my job shifts from restoring parts to finding Best-in-Class parts (restorations are more fun though!).

Perfect Example

These new reproduction housings are a perfect example. They are all metal and the details, craftsmanship and fit are excellent, on a par with the originals. They are relatively inexpensive and 100% complete plug n' play ready to install (which is where the great deal comes in).

The 5-rivet TTG driving lights have always been a favorite of mine (who knows why - kind of like the affection I have for the side oil filler on the 72's).

The only H4 bulbs recommended by worldwide automotive lighting expert and AC Consultant Daniel Stern - and the only H4 halogen bulbs we sell.

Manufactured in Germany (one of the few H4 halogen bulbs not made in Asia), these Osram Night Breaker H4 bulbs deliver 250% more illumination than a standard 60w/55w H4 bulb. That's 190% brighter with no increase in current draw or heat generated.

45% Brighter Incandescent Turn Signal & Taillight Bulb Kit

These bulbs were originally used by a Japanese auto manufacturer in their high-end cars. They evidently made the decision that they were to expensive and went back to basic bulbs.

These are 45% brighter and have nickel bases to prevent corrosion. They are the best way we know of to significantly increase the brightness of your signal light bulbs short of installing LED's. And they do retain an original look. They're expensive though. Your call (we sell a lot of them).

JA: We spent many hours researching first what would be ideal to include and this kit and second the best value specific items to include. We were disappointed when we introduced it as it was a complete dud. We're featured it in this section because there's been a big upsurge in interest of late.

This kit is designed to fit perfectly into your smugglers box where it can be stored out of the way. Yet it contains everything you need in one kit to take care of many common roadside problems. It's designed for the self-reliant Porsche 911/912/930 owner who would rather get rolling on their own without waiting on - and depending on - AAA. I guess I'm old school but it's nice to be self-sufficient.

DME Solid State Fuel Pump Relay for Porsche Carrera 3.2, 964 and

The original mechanical DME relay is a common point of failure in our cars. These are solid state making them far more reliable. Made by a one man shop, an electrical engineer, quality is Best-in-Class. Plus the LED diagnostic lights are not only helpful, they're flat out cool.

Replace your old one with one of these, throw your old one into the glove box, and enjoy low-cost peace of mine.
