Default LED Lights

Who makes the best led lights. I have an 08 997.1 and want to replace the rear lights? Also what is a reasonable cost? Thank You

Dectane seems to be the top pick around here. I've had mine for about a year. No issues. Love the look.

Best & reasonable cost are two different things.
I got mine at Max-Speed Motorsports.
5 years and counting. No issues.

The Depo/Dectane look more like the 997.2 LEDs than the other brands. They seem to be quite popular.

Got Depo, work and look awesome but expensive. Figure out your budget and then look for options.

I bought this: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/12pc-...875638368.html

Looks great, no error messages and the color is white and nice (instead of blueish like the cheap led's tend to be)
I went for "white" which is the same as their store photos.
Cheers!



Edit: Didn't really read it fully, haha. Ignore the previous message, I'd say Dectane (depo).

With regards, Jonathan.
