Couple of Q's in regard to this update:
Your globe and adapter the green circle clip (adapter) are totally different to my 2011 H7 globes and adapters.
Did they change the setup ...mine has spring steel adapters like in the attached YouTube clip
Also are both high and low beam bulbs H7 and if so what did owners do with the two different luminescence.
For example I see only really high wattage lights and don't want to be blinding other road users on low beam.
Unsure as to the best path.

I thought both H1 and H7 in Cayenne were Halogen.
H1 High beam and H7 low beam.
I have ordered H1 x2 and H7 x2 with adapters as listed in that YouTube video.
Either way the lighting is terrible in a Marque prestige vehicle and needs updating ASAP.
My daughters Hyundai has better lighting.

I never knew that the 958 cayenne came with Halogens. I thought that every single Cayenne was HID.

I have a 2011 Cayenne Turbo. I'd like to replace my low beam HID bulb(35 w D1S) with the proper led replacement. I assume I would get the 35w D1S D1R led replacement bulb? The D1S says its 80w which I assume is not compatible.
I notice you got the 35w D3S D3R bulb. Was your low beam HID bulb 35w D3S?
Thanks in advance

That really isn't common knowledge until you need to change a bulb on your first Cayenne.

I guess after doing it on a 2011 beetle years back and my 05' Cayenne, I didn't mention it, but it is not what you'd expect for sure. It does make the bulb change simple without ripping up your knuckles. Only trick is the re-install to get the metal tab to engage.
