Hi all! Thanks for reading!
I am looking for right one for LED DRL, clutch and rotor
1. LED DRL
- do you have any recommendation under $300 for this? I want to hear your experience whether you got any warning light or problem. If you have one and enjoying currently, could you share the link? I could find many styles such as normal one, sequencial one or turbo style one. But it is hard to make a decision which one I should go for.
2. Clutch
- I am buying clutch and I can lots of different after market product. Are those worth it?
3. Disk Rotor and brake pad
- Do you have any recommendation on those product? I could find many after market product which is much cheaper. What's you guys though on that?
Thanks a lot!!

Here are my 2 cents
1) I currently have the "standard" LED DRL and it's been on for a few months now. I got it off eBay for $220. That's around the cheapest price I see online now.
The newer style ones with a "light pipe" are more expensive probably. I don't think any of these would raise an error/warning - mine definitely hasn't. It's all up to your taste.
Also, I'm planning to put the stock ones back on the car. I could sell the LED ones to you for $150 shipped, OBO.

2) When the clutch went out on my old 997, I just bought the "standard" Sachs clutch kit. I didn't go for any sport or race clutch since I don't track and didn't want a touch-n-go clutch with the traffic here.
3) I'm going to need to replace the front rotors and pads soon on my car and I'm planning to go with Hawk HPS pads - the ones that don't give a lot of dust.
I've heard good things about the Hawk Ceramic as well as Pagid. Any of these should be as good as or better than OEM.
I was hoping to search through the forums to find out more about rotors myself before I order parts

If you're looking to save some money on this brake job, I have a package deal for you on some lightly used 997 Carrera S Sebro slotted rear rotors (have the black E-coat to prevent rust) along with Hawk HPS pads. I have the corresponding front HPS pads so pads for all 4 corners plus dba slotted rear rotors. If interested, let me know and we'll come up with a price. but you'd be able to get these upgraded components for less than new stock ones would run you.
After cleaning the rotors in my heated, ultrasonic parts washer, I brushed them with Eastwood metal wash to prevent surface rust, which is the streaking ans spotting you see on them, but it will wipe right off since you'd be wiping them with brake cleaner after installation anyway.
