LED foglight parking bulb install 987 Cayman
13 Attachment(s)
cost: $4.95 each bulb
part: BA9s-WHP6-12V 6 High Power LED Bulb difficulty: 1-5 is 1 super easy tools needed: phillips screwdriver purchased from SUPER BRIGHT LEDS home (not a forum sponsor) I purchased LED parking light bulbs which are in the foglight housing... Attachment 497990 here you can see the difference between the two halogen and LED, they have built in resistors so there is no bulb out warning... Attachment 497991 here is the package with the part #'s the old halogen bulbs are in the package so don't get confused... Attachment 497992 first remove the foglight shroud... Attachment 497993 remove the three screws... Attachment 497994 pull out the old bulb by twisting it off and put the new LED in by pushing it in then twisting, the pins do mot match up perfect they are off. It will still hold the bulb in place fine... Attachment 497995 here it is on, so bright matches xenons perfect, its much brighter than the factory halogen bulb... Attachment 497996 it will fit in you have to turn it at an angle then slide it in... Attachment 497997 push it into the housing twist again and thats it, now turn on the parking lights... Attachment 497998 here is the halogen... Attachment 497999 now side by side... Attachment 498000 and both on... (HID foglights are off) Attachment 498001 and now all lights on... Attachment 498002 cant match xenons better than LEDs. |
How are they working?
Any issues?

Will this work on Gen 1 987?

Does anyone know if the 987 Boxsters use the same bulbs for these lights? The lenses are sure different.

Nope. The 987 Boxster uses wedge-shape 194 bulbs. So, the socket style bulbs posted by OP won't work on the Boxster. SuperBrightLED sells the bulbs. IIRC, it's the same bulb as the overhead interior light.
I am not sure if we discussed you changing your foglight bulbs last time you were here but I am thinking about these... http://www.superbrightleds.com/image...s/wled-xlx.jpg WLED Miniature Wedge Base bulbs with High Power SMD LEDs T3-1/4 (#194/168) type bulbs with High Power SMD. Wide Angle LEDs up to 120 degrees. 12 Volt DC operation. Replaces: 194, 158, 168, 12256, 12961 What are your thoughts on these? Here is the link for reference... Thanks, Rhonda |
The color looks better than stock ones.

How do you remove the shrouds? Do you just pull with force?

Based on your posting, I ordered and just installed the LED Superbrightled's! super easy and what a difference.... Thanks for the awesome info!

Nice, looks like the gen 2's now with Bi-xenons since the "fogs" are led DRL's
