I wanted to add DRL's and after researching what is available I decided to go with the Morimoto XB LED headlights. Big thank you to Micheal at Cyper Vehicle Design for the fast shipping and support after purchase. Very quick to reply to all my questions. Also installed OE Euro clear side markers.
Next in line is a steering wheel swap to a 991.2 steering wheel and installing the Sport Mode software retrofit kit.

Any error codes or issues? I've seen quite a few posts with issues. Maybe they've resolved them by now. Do they auto level?

No error codes for the 997.1. They are virtually plug-n-play. I did use the fuse tap method for the DRL's it's a cleaner install without the switch that Morimoto provides. They are not self leveling. From what I understand the 997.2 install does require coding to clear error codes.
With the PNWR PCA North Cascades tour Parking lot rally points, always get fun looks/thumbs up Fun day for a drive, good thing too because of Seattle traffic it took me three hours to get to the rally point Objects in mirror are fast Top of the route, Diablo Lake Very little snow in the mountains, slightly worrisome, but no wildfire smoke! Open roads and sunny skies, Porsche Paradise I drove 385 miles and all I got was this cracked windshield!
Previous owner had the car detailed by a rookie who used aggressive wheeler cleaner and completely stripped the centerlock anodizing. I recently replaced them with RS black CL and black caps.

Asked the amazing @HouseAutomotive to help install some bits on our 997.....they truly are one of the area's best Porsche focused shops from both a service and tech standpoint.
-Bilstein B16 Damptronic shocks and struts (amazing the ride diff, approx height 25.625" fr, 26.25" rear, still able to navigate driveways, may drop it some more)
-New oem water pump/housing
-New oem shifter cables (Numeric shifter installed)
-New oem engine mounts (amazing how many cabin "rattles" went away)
- @Emc2design 991 front lip

The cxx leather door sills arrived from heavy smash salvage. I did my own previously using an aftermarket leather with stitching but it didn’t come out super professional. This piece is hard for me to wrap for whatever reason.
Anyway, the oem is very nice. Hope I don’t mangle it up too much.
I was getting some pieces painted so got some spare door sills to paint. Went back to white. I still like the leather but going to try white for a bit and see what I prefer. Swapped out my carbon fiber interior handles for white ones also.
