Default Turbo ducts

One more mod and I am done...(famous last words) I am looking for turbo ducts. Any ideas where I can source a pair at a reasonable price? Would these listed on Ebay work? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Porsc...Q5fAccessories

TIA

They'll work, but you'll have to end up sanding them and making them fit.

For the perfect fit, OEM is the way to go, imho. Gert has them.

But a reasonable price? For a Porsche?

Not sure, but the ones you are looking at might have better lights than the 'stock ones.' I could be wrong.....

Go Porsche, the aftermarket ones might fit well, who knows. Change the 5 wat bulb to a super bright 12 led one and they look great. Porsche ones are £200 in the UK, about $300 ish so not much more than the Ebay versions

Gappy, those are the units I have in my car. They fit fine. H4 bulb too.
I offered $200 and it was accepted.

Good Luck

I think you should consider the ones from Gert that are LED. This way they match the light quality of your current HID's.

I also have the factory Porsche Turbo S ducts and LEDs from www.superbrightleds.com Looks good, but not an effective driving light.

Where can I find these type of ducts?

Also, the one on ebay, is that a driving light or fog lights? I am not too crazy about the driving lights....

The Ebay ones in your link at the top look identical to what the PO installed in my car. They fit really well, the lights are 27W, which is pretty decent for a fog light.
