I found this set up for turbo only! Driving light inside the Porsche 997 Turbo LED cluster. Posted some pics from them.

I did the front parking light, fog lights and rear license plates. Cool company to deal with. Delivery is very very fast and customer service is also just as fast. I would feel very comfortable referring them to anyone.

One of my license plate lights burned out after a week and one of the driving lights flickers and eventually shuts off. Grrr....

At least this didn't happen...

Hoen's customer service was very good. Andreas took care of the problem and then some - he replaced the receptacle and wiring harness on my car. The error here was the lack of heat sink on what was shipped to me. For anyone who has done a swap, you may want to double check.

if your running their license plate replacement LED bulbs they will allow trade in for dLED assembly. The 997TT enclosure is sealed and kills bulbs due to heat, they gave me full trade in on the new 997 assembly and its night and day better part.

Ive had no problems with the LED city light, close match, I get stopped all the time with comments on them, even local Porsche dealer was interested.

Ive tried pretty much all their bulbs:

3850 city light - not a good match, skip it.
chromium rear turn signal - recommend it
4000k rear backup light - thew a code, they are working on a fix, skip it until
chromium sidemarker - recommend it, needs euro sidemarkers though (clear)
trunk / engine bay LED - purely cosmetic, but looks better than stock
fogs - yellow ones, I like the look, so far so good.

Any idea when is Andreas going to have the amber side markers available in LED? Now that I got my side markers blinking, I hate the incandescent delay as it flashes.

I did the hoen bulb in a clear side marker- looks great. Also did the running lights with hoen. No problems at all. Very bright and I'm happy.
