Side Markers Question

HI guys,

I know lots of you have purchased/installed the new led side markers offered by porsche.

Is there another option to have the side markers match the front lights? I've tried some led bulbs that match the Front lights but they kept flickering.
Any input will be appreciated as i really don't like the amber coloured lights


Thanks

Thanks for your reply, but they light up orange. I was trying to keep it the same colour as the headlights.

LED side markers have always been standard on the 991 Turbo. It's the Carrera guys who have been buying them.

The Standard ones on the turbo are clear but not led. The bulb inside is a regular orange bulb.

They're all amber by law.

In the US, amber front and red rear side marker lamps and retroreflectors are required. The law initially required lights or retroreflectors on vehicles made after 1 January 1968. This was amended to require lights and retroreflectors on vehicles made after 1 January 1970.

Flicker caused by "standard" LED bulbs. You need CAN BUS bulbs.
