LED Tails: C'Mon was that really a GB thread ?

Or was it merely just a thread to see if there was enough interest to warrant a possible group buy ? Maybe a new thread should be started with slightly different wording, so we could establish whether or not they are feasible to produce. I get it, I would assume the manufacturer in question would then become an advertiser, and an official GB would then be started.

Or maybe we can just take the GB list from the advertiser who left us all high and dry the last time around. Never providing us with an update on the project, after casting some bait.

Optimistically frustrated, would like to see this get done.

Getting 250 people to commit on a car forum will be a challenge IMO.

Those things typically work well with 10 or 20 people but 250?! Are there even 250 active members on here that will read this?

Aftermarket LED taillights? Really?

There is a difference between OEM type of these and some aftermarkets.



VS



No?

And how will these look on a 996?

To each their own I guess. I do not think it would look right.

Spyder LED tail light

Just installed these LED Spyder tail lights in a 2002 Porsche 996 Carrera 4 Cab.

It was an easy 30 minute install.
No hyper flash or other issues!
Pretty pleased with the result

Total cost $299 from Amazon.
