Thumbs up
I got my kit from Vivid racing with Ahmed, it was just a plug and play kit. Very easy, but the only thing i did was got a new bumper, exhaust outlets, and the center bracket. Part numbers and description was provided by Atomic80 in his previous posts.

Hello guys,
I am from germany and we have a 08´ 997 Turbo Convertible. I did the LED taillight swap a few weeks ago. Yesterday the missing front module (997 618 513 01) arrived (the rear module already was the right one 997 618 260 08) and I connected it to our car. Additionally I changed Pin 11 to 36 and Pin 42 to 31 on the blue connector of the front module. Everything is working now except the fog lights in the front. They didn´t work
I have a Piwis, so can a wrong PIWIS configuration cause my problem? Did anyone have this problem, too and know a solution for it?

Regards Gregor

997.2 facelift

These are the SAME part numbers for 997.2 front & rear control units.

I will do the install in two weeks and will confirm if pin swaps are necessary for the tail light upgrade.
