And I believe the Suncoast kit includes interior, frunk, engine, and license plate.

The Suncoast kit includes interior (dome, foot wells, doors, glove box), frunk and engine. License plate is a separate kit.

Yep - not cheap either - $150 for interior kit and $64 for license plate lights.

I agree, but for a $100k car it's worth it

Since we are on the subject of LED lights......

991 owners can get clear LED side lights for $95.00.

918 Spyder owners can get clear LED side lights for... $659.95.

WTF? You pay a $1,000,000 for a car and then you have to pay $660 for clear LEDs! Even by Porsche standards, that is price gouging!

I replaced all the Ebay LED bulbs with a kit I purchased from USP Motorsports. Cost was $69.00. The new bulbs are brighter and look better made. Time will tell.

is brighter always better? I do love LED lights inside, but the OEM bulbs have a warmer tone to them which is nice especially at night.

That was my original point about switching to LEDs. Unless you can be absolutely certain of the specific color/wavelength output properties of the LEDs in the upgrade kit, it's entirely possible you won't be able to see things as well as the OEM bulbs despite similar, or even higher output in lumens. CRI (color rendering index) is the key spec you want to look for. Higher is better. Not sure if these guys advertise that or not.

Any update on how they lasted? Just ordered a set for my 997.1
