If in fact they do have a group buy, can you please post it to this thread so we can all take advantage of it Thanks in advance....

I bought one pair off of Amazon.com and the Ballast Resistor was defective which caused error codes, so I returned them and got a refund. The second set I had my Porsche Tuning Shop order and I have had a single problem with them.

Great deal, but I would like to see how they look on your car. The price of $405 is very doable

That's a great price, although these look much closer to the original ones!

Stephan has the older LED lights that can be had for $300 on ebay. The newer 997.2 style Dectane lights just came out this year for NB 996's and is supposed to be plug and play without any errors or issues. Plus, they look way better and definitely have a more OEM look IMO.

Just installed the Dectane LED 997.2 rears. Plug and play as advertised. Note: If you're States-side and ordering from European merchant, keep your order as simple as possible!

Threads for these lights have been floating around for months now. it takes about 5 weeks to get them from Germany. I think the price has increased on the Dectane site.

The fitment is great and truly plug and play.
