Recently purchased a set from FVD. PM Rhonda@FVD here on this forum and you'll get a discount code to use in their shop. This thread is actually what pushed me into getting it for my car, can't wait for it to arrive.

I'm assuming the install is straightforward? Don't think I've seen a single pic in this thread where the install was performed at a shop, seems to be everyone doing it in their driveways.

Now I feel like an idiot for asking. Thanks for responding with instructions though.

I have the smoked Dectanes that are no longer manufactured and think they look great with the other mods on my car and the GT silver paint. Like them so much, I bought a 2nd set that's brand new and sitting on my shelf should I ever need a replacement. Had smoked Spyders before and they were a disaster - multiple sets failed within the first 1-2 months. Have red and white Dectanes on my wife's car too, which is her DD and no issues with either set over the past 2 years or so.

997TT1911 is an unknown quantity at this point
Just wanted to say I installed these on my 08 turbo cab. It was from car light pro. The salesman/tech guy spoke to me on the phone after I placed the order and told me make sure I install it with the resistors and asked if I had questions. Went over install with me too.

installed them and they work great and look fantastic. Easy install.

Quality is very good. The lenses look great. The only area you can tell it's not quite OEM quality is from the back side. What a difference in aesthetics and brightness.
Who did you buy from?

This vendor on eBay has a good rep and he sells the DEPO brand.https://www.ebay.com/itm/USA-DEPO-09...item1c9958cc3d

Here's another:

http://carlightpro.com/

I've bought from both and been pleased.
