oh wow, so you had the new Hoen LED license plate housings? or just the Hoen LED lights?

it looks like I use those KrafTecknik bulbs on my Mercedes as well and I guess I'll go with these on the Porsche too.

thanks, again!

I went through a few of their bulbs...I think the Hoen assemblies are their response to so many failed bulbs. Looks like an interesting idea, but I don't know anyone running them at the moment.

I just installed the Hoen led housing in my car last week. They are very bright, a lot brighter than any factory led bulb I have seen. Hopefully these will last long unlike the standard bulbs.

Lights turned out awesome and well worth the $120. I on the other hand opted for the $20 headlight upgrade. The results were a bit different.

"The passenger side is done and I just wanted to post some quick shots. I was afraid of throwing codes, so I specifically ordered their error cancellation unit. First impressions: Wow that was easy. I still haven't taped the ballast / all that to the frame yet (shoved everything in and fired it up), but I see no issues at all with the kit aside from that thin line of darkness, which I assume would be shadow from the bulb. I paid ~120 for everything shipped."

I'm thinking about putting these on my 2000 911, but don't really like the 2 thin lines of darkness. Is that normal? Is there a fix?

Thanks,
Don
