Do you have "Red & Clear?" (Any pics? Are these closer to OEM Taillight Red?)
We have not received a red/clear light. It's on the boat over and we hope it clears customs and in our possession by the end of the week.

Wow, that looks awesome. I will wait to see how the red/clear looks in real life... but so far the smoked+clear is incredible. You are gonna hit 10 pages in a week and a gazillion of orders... people have been waiting for this... for 10 years!

Thanks for the excitement and optimism Joel I know one lingering issue is the warranty policy so I'll be sure to address that before I start the GB. The smoked clear does look really good...it doesn't look cheap like other LED tailights for other vehicles. I'm anxious to see the red/clear myself

No problem. I am really hoping that it clears customs this week. I would expect with the general slowdown in the economy, import volume would be lower than normal so hopefully they'll clear it soon.

Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to process credit cards.

Let me know how our german porsche brethrens respond to the lights

Check/money order/wire transfer is fine. Pretty much any form of payment.

In regards to paypal fees, I'm only passing through what paypal charges me (2.9%)

Thanks

Great looking! Are these lights the "exact" measurement/install as the OEM lights?

Thanks for the information. Will these fit C4S/Turbos? I'm interested as well. Will these perform the rear fog light function? Where's your location?
