Shaun, you better make that, "She must have had more than 4 x the fun . . . . ."

Yep, that's right!

Default Center Rear Foglight



I’ve met a few 981 Spyder owners recently who were unaware of the center rear foglight or how to turn it on (pull light switch out). It’s super bright red.

It’s my understanding on the new Spyder/GT4 the foglight is moved to the inside of the driver’s side rear taillight lense.

Default Parking light

That's interesting. I always thought you activated the corner lights for parking by leaving the turn signal stalk down. I've never tried that on a modern German, so did they all move away from that? Do the 987.2 have that?
