I did not see a Suncoast link. The links seem to be the same.

I just replaced my front and rear lights last week. I bought mine from Revolution Motorsports. At that time, they had a group buy on the rears for $550 plus shipping. You might want to check them out. Their customer service was awesome. I love the Depo/Dectane lights they sell. They were true plug and play. It took me 15 minutes to swap them out. Good luck.

 

Sorry for the link I made a mistake on the ctrl copy and paste, any way I will look forward to see those lights, almost the same price as the ones on eBay!! Thanks

 

Do you have the web site of revolution motorsport? Thanks

 

ebay link is for 997.1 model. MY 2005.5 - MY 2008.5

suncoast link is for 997.2 (facelift model) - MY 2009 - 2012

 

Yes my car is 997.1, but any other difference maybe in quality? fitment??

Thanks

The suncoast lights won't fit your 997.1 unless you change the rear bumper too. so you are left with the Dectane or RoTech ones...

Let's use a little pictorial for easy understanding and as a reference for the future:

left to right: OEM 997.1, OEM 997.2, Depo/Dectane, ROTtech



left 997.2 OEM, right 997.1 Depo/dectane



left 997 OEM, right 997.1 Depo/dectane

 

thanks perfect explanation now I know where to look, I think is a really nice upgrade for the car, or maybe not, like my brother says if you have a 997.1 you should stick how it was from the beginning, what do you think?

 

I'm OK with upgrades or customization to make the car "your own" or unique, but am not a big fan of converting one car to look like another. IMHO it spoils the beauty of each car, as designed by the artists in Stutgart. Besides, for the cost of upgrades, you could just trade in your car for the one you actually want.

Furthermore, an enthusiast, looking carefully, would be able to tell that you converted your 996 into a 997, or you converted your 997.1 into a 997.2, etc. But a non-enthusiast can't tell the difference between a 996 or a 991, anyway. So it's wasted effort for either audience.

That said, do what floats YOUR boat.

 

Sooner or later the mod bug will bite, it is up to you to control the fever that follows.

I think Dectane/Depo LED tails on a 997.1 is a nice touch.

 

That last line is the key. Your bro will tell you one thing, your wife will tell you something else. Your co-workers have their own opinion. You know what they say about opinions! Do what YOU want to do.

One benefit of a site like 6-speed is that you get to see what out there for mods, and decide if you want it or not. Some consider that a downside as well!!!

 

Thanks for all of your comments!!
