Default 997.2 Rear ROW Tailights

Anyone know the best place to get ROW rear clear taillights for a 997.2 RS with amber turn signals? I'm assuming Gert might be the guy for this.

​​​​​​I recently exported my RS from the US to Japan and the factory US taillights are no bueno in Japan.

Thanks, mate! By far the cheapest I found and decent delivery price too.

Wow, I never knew the RoW taillights flashed amber. Does anyone have a video of this?

No video, but here's a photo. I got a set 7 years ago right after I bought the car...

Nice. We're you able to get the weird rear for light programmed to work?

Hey Spyrex, not sure if it's possible but I heard there is a way to make the rear ROW fog light to work via coding. Never tried this or looked into it in any detail. I have a Durametric in a box somewhere in my office in Japan. Ill dig it out and see what I can find once I get my RS back from the inspection guys. Many thanks!

What’s the difference in the ROW fog light vs the USDM?

I use mine all the time. Works great to tell people behind me to turn their brights off or tell someone to get off my bumper.

I'm pretty sure the rear fogs work on both sides since the tail light assemblies are ROW. I'll have to get back to you on that, it's been such a long time since I installed them...
