Nice looking Carrera - Good you removed the GT3 stripe - don't know why people do that.

Time to upgrade to LED rears as well to complement your front LED. Looking good in blue!

lol, called out in about 2.5 seconds on 6speed. Nice car OP, looks better without that decal IMO, even if it was a GT3, not a fan of decals.

Where the LED's plug in play as DRL from Maxspeed, or did you have to use the FVD module?

Are you saying your front LEDs function exactly like the 997.2? That is, the fog light portion will turn on upon starting the car w/o turning on your city lights?

There are 3 different lights in this LED DRL
1.turning light

2.daytime running light (the middle white stripe)
if you wanna just turn the running light on, just switch to the parking lights

3.fog light (the bottom led)

you can turn on the running light only or with the fog light together without turning low beam

From your description, it's not a true plug and play in the sense that your LED does not function like the 997.2 ones. You still need to turn on your light switch to get the LED to turn on. What I'm getting at, like White Rock is asking, is that does your LEDs turn on automatically when you start the car, like the 997.2 ones? I believe you can't unless you do the FVD/Orange Tuning Module or the Utkinpol hack.
