I bought a set off Ebay, not sure if the same as the ones in the link, they all worked and fitted fine with no issues.
Brightens up the interior no end.

I fitted a set of LEDs similar to these 18 months or so ago.
Pleased to say easy to install without any errors and all are still working fine.

However the 2 x underdash lights to my eyes produced a rather spotty light - something to do with the covers on the lamp/LED holders which have an odd pattern of small squares on which focussed the light in patches.

Does anyone know of any alternatives which don't do this and have the correct fitment?
TIA
 
Jonno, Should have gone to specsavers mate :grin: :thumb:
 
Funny you should say that Phil, I do actually have an eye test later today!

Buy CANBUS error free LEDs
Much cheaper to buy the LEDs rather than a KIT.
Make sure your original bulbs work, then swap out for the LEDs.
If the LEDs don't work first time turn them around as they are polarity dependent!
Not sure about 997,but have just changed these on my Cayman.
42mm festoon x2....frunk & boot lid.
36mm festoon x2....Number plate lights.
31mm festoon x4.... sun visor/vanity mirror.
T10 W5W x7......doors x2/footwell x2/glove box x1/central courtesy light x2.

hope this helps.
 
Taking this one step further, has anyone done their sidelights and foggies?

Really don't get on with HIDs matched with hideous orange bulbs up front.

@ tbrown - Thanks for the list, I am hoping to get a Cayman soon and would want to be doing the interiors as a matter of course.

carreramonkey has done his sidelights in a thread recently not the led upgrade just changed the bulb to a white type so you cant see the orange through the lens.
 
Am I right in thinking its not so much the done thing in the Porsche world?

Over on the R32oc literally everyone has done a full LED conversion, inside and out.

I have been looking into it, figure I would do the fog lights and the sidelights for sure. Makes the car looks so much more modern. Was a bumper off job on the R32, way simpler on a Porker by the looks of it.
