Video TechArt LED Daytime Runing Lights Installed 997TT w/ factory bumper @ SharkWerks

This black 2009 997TT Stage II cab project came back to us this week to do the first TechArt LED DayTime Running light kit installation. I know a lot of you have been waiting to see what it looks like well here they are in the flesh:

And some pictures:

And yes they're very bright!



The kit is very nicely laid out and there's quite a lot to it as well. There are separate controllers and the lights themselves slot into the factory vents beneath the turn signals. They work reall, really well (think Audi R8). Be prepared for a few hours work (TechArt says around 4-5).

The installation takes a few hours and being "first/an early-adopter" has always been fun. You guys will all get instructions in English but our newest addition to the team didn't and here's what he did to figure out the install. Think of this as the "Extended Version" of the Video:

Hehe thanks Dave... I told you they were cool! I like them better than the ones on the 09 actually. They seem to really blend into the factory vents. I don't think anyone else thought of doing it that way so it's nice to see....

Cheers and it actually made a lot of sense (even in german) because as with all TechArt instructions they're very detailed so in English it should be a breeze:P

We promised to use their drinks in a video and boxes just kept coming. I don't know anyone in this industry that doesn't end up living on Energy Drinks:P

Philips makes those bulbs, you can pop them in, do some wiring magic & 100 USD later you have LED's. I bet you get to save a bundle if you opt for the non TechArt labeled version.
