Got the dectane LED lights last night.

One word to describe them: Awesome.

It brings the car to the 21st century! The rows of LED are amazing, installation is plug and play and the look is better that the old tail lights and really matching the 991.2 LED's.

Now, what I need to do is replace the back-up halogen lights with some LED's (anybody know of a replacement?)

btw, got it from ebay for $549.

The fronts DRL LED are next, but like everything made in Asia, is just a matter of time until we see them for $250 the pair. I give them 3 months tops!

yep, I added the lettering last night. From Suncoast Porsche, they are the ones for the Panamera. You have to stick one by one using the "H" size for proper spacing. Really love the look.

lol, keep dreaming, your tails are make in Asia too, it's been more than 3 months and the price has not dropped at all. In fact, the front LED's are getting extremely popular, it might go from $500 to $600 in 3 months.

The $900 price point was market pricing - new product demanded lots of attention - I don't think there are any manufacturing efficiencies yet unless you factor in volume increases.
