Hi all.

I replaced the license tag lights with Sylvania LED’s on my other two vehicles (Caddy, Ford). I like the true white bulbs VS the yellow hue.

I want to replace them on my TTS since everything else is LED on the rear of the car, but I know Porsche’s electrical system can be finicky. Has anyone switched to these LED’s or similar without issue? Would I need any add-ons (resistors, etc) to make it work trouble-free?

thanks!

 

I did not use Sylvania LEDs, but I did use another brand of LED from deAuto Key for the plate lights w/o problem. No resistors needed.

 

 

They are a completely different part and I think are sealed. I can't recall if the bulbs are replaceable in the incandescent versions - mine are in storage - good question and if so, would be easy to test a cheap LED bulb.

 

I tried an inexpensiove set that replaced the entire housing and so far no issues and much brighter. I just installed them before putting the car in storage. Will see how long they last.

I put in LED bulbs a few years ago, they're still working fine.

 

Got a link to where you purchased them, I'd like to order a pair?

 

I've tried several types of LED's before but ended up switching back as I found them to be too bright. It would light up the ground too much. Anyone have any suggestions on which LED's that isn't too bright?

Update: I got some Sylvania 6418 Zevo 6k LED and is perfect, white light but not too bright.

 

Supra.z06...Got them off Amazon. Inexpensive enough to try out.
