they are uploading to photobucket please hold lol

 

That's what I said... Only the WB mold would have to be re-designed - the internal circuitry could be carried over from the NB version.

 

The headlight ones are 102 smd led

 

nice work, not feeling it tho, who can make some 997.2 light fit up?

 

Oh that's great news! You should contact the Chinese manufacturers of the eBay LEDs and let them know this piece of critical information. Perhaps they'll awaken to the huge opportunity they are missing here! 50 customers willing to pay as little as possible!

Sadly wholesale product development doesn't skip steps or pass any potential savings on. You can get ANYTHING you want manufactured. You just have to pay. No pay, no play. With such low production numbers and increasingly price sensitive prospective customers why anyone would take the risk is beyond me. I certainly am not taking the project on. Sounds like a waste of time and lots BS. (but then I already knew that from last time )

Like I said at the beginning of this thread, it ain't gonna happen.

 

What exactly are the differences between the two taillights? Besides the obvious width? Are the curves identical? Any pics of the taillights side by side? it seems to make more sense to adapt the led taillights to our cars than having having it made.

 

I have a small factory in china I can build aluminum brackets to fit 997.2 tail lights and suppose the bracket can then be sprayed to the colour of the car but i don't have dimensions of the 996 TT tail light or the housing.

 

They can pry my incandescent tail light bulbs from my cold dead hand.

 

Are you serious ?? A bracket to hold the 997.2 lamps onto the 996 WB. Someone please help me out here... I've got to be missing something..

 

i don't actually know the dimensions of the WB 996 tail lights but they do seem alot bigger so my guess is if there is enough room, making a bracket surrounding the 997.2 light which can bolt up to the WB body might be easier.

 

And in turn make it easier for the body shop to mold them into the car(the aluminum panels).

 

997.1 are more triangular and the 997.2 are curved at the bottom. Someone must have some 997.1/.2 taillights laying around that we can do a test fit on a 996 WB. So we can help out rrdralli with dimensions to get brackets made.

 

my original thought was to build a bracket to fit the 997.2 tails lights and then just screw the entire unit on the car so it could be reversible back to the 996 stock lights if needed but definately molding it would look much better I agree.

 

I guess this thread for widebody LED tailights is still going NOOOOOOOOOOOOWHEEEEEEEERRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEE ?

 

If i have the dimensions, i can start building, anyone got a broken tail light for measuring? I have the 997.2 tail lights in hand hence the dimensions.
