Drcollie,

I bought the same set on eBay, but the plugs seem to be different. The OEM has a block style plug and the eBay one has the same as your showing with that purple object in it. Did you have to slice anything or modify in order for it to fit? Any input is much appreciated.

Thanks!

Default Clear Side Markers with white bulbs

I'm going to order from Flat 6 Motorsports, but since my car is white should I keep the white bulb in there or switch to the ugly orange bulb that comes with the kit?

I swapped in the orange bulb. You can barely see the bulb when it's not lit during the daytime anyways but at night, I don't want to draw law enforcement attention with an out of place white light.

Help with removing the light?
I opened up the fender liner but still puzzled with what and how to push.
I presume there is a spring clip that must be pushed forward (toward the front of the car)?
TIA, Phil

Hi Phil,

I remember bravery and hard pulling was involved.

Not harsh at all, I would describe it as firmer and more sporty, but wouldn't at all call it harsh (in a kidney jarring way) I have been largely driving it from the out-of-the-box setup and I find it just perfect, played a bit with the settings (even just for the heck of it giving the Macan a 'gasser' look LOL, so the ride gets noticeably firmer [less suspension travel] as you drop it to the extreme, naturally)

One of the immediate distinctions from a feel perspective is the noticeable decrease in body roll (e.g. taking spirited turns over uneven pavement). A lot more controlled, composed, and planted now, which makes sense given lower COG.
How much is the lowering system and can you do yourself or requires a tech? Thanks
