Update for other 997 GT owners who may be interested. Blacked out headlight with blacked out ring. Similar to the 911 sportclassic/speedster headlights but blacked out internals. I think it needs matching speedster/sportclassic DRLS. Im not sold on going full black out on my white car. Maybe if I was running black accents. On colored cars I think it would look better.
Passenger side Blacked out and Driver side OEM

I think you're right about keeping it lighter given you have red accents instead of all black.

Had the same system in my GT4. Really makes a big difference. Fully intend on doing it in my GT3 as well.
Did the installer use the toggle switch that came with the kit?
I soldered the connection to my SAT button for an extra clean install.

Uses the Canbus to trigger reverse camera when the car is in reverse gear.
I believe this is totally stock install to the NMAuto instructions. So your install was SAT button to go into Carplay/NMAuto?
Will update with some photos

Interesting.
It’s possible that it’s slightly different on the base radio of the GT4 now that I think about it. That integration is definitely nice.

First track day with the RS. fun morning as I got acclimated with car. Very enjoyable machine to drive on track. Unfortunately, one of large coolant hose popped out and ended my day early and a tow truck ride back into town. Looks to be an easy fix which I am grateful for and hopefully get back out at the track soon.
