There's a vendor right in your city that sells LED taillights...a little different than the Dectane but they look great and I guess you wouldn't have to worry about shipping or customs.

Between this forum and 6speed you can find at least 50 pictures (maybe more)...just will take a little work on your part since they are spread over 4 or 5 different threads. Just search Dectane and Rottec.

Here yo ugo--Rottec's version of the LED rears. I believe the most significant design difference is that they retain the use of a red colored incandescent bulb for the rear fog position. Dectane uses LEDs for all lighting applications.
First, one with running lights, and turn signals on and the rear fog on.
Then, with the flashers (both turn indicators) on.
Third shot, as described in photo.
Fourth shot, new RotTec lights installed (lights out)
Fifth shot, original OEM lights.
Finally, LEDs on rear from the back, lights on.

I know ... it's a well done product, but I dont like Rotec design as much, screams aftermarket...

Here are some of mine for comparison to Edgy's Rottec's. The dectane looks a lot more OEM than Rottec.

If I am not mistaken, all of these lights are made by DEPO, which makes quality aftermarket lights for many cars. Even though $600 is a bargain for a 997 LED light, all other DEPO lights are less than $200, even the big SUV ones...
Waiting to see if anybody post a photo of the smoked version...
