Well, after trying in vain to attach the lateral array to a plug (My Depo Lights only reached the "fog light" outlet and would not reach the "running light" outlet), I got it working:
I used the two open outlet positions innermost (call them "A" the innermost and "B"next in line).
Position "B" lights the lateral array in a steady "on position" -- no increase in intensity with breaking [and if any one has other/new information on the lateral array with variable lighting (with versus without braking), I would appreciate it].
Position "A" lights the inner array and comes on _only_ with breaking. I also tested Position "C" the next down the line laterally - nothing, a dead socket for U.S. use, except as a fog light on the driver's side (only when fog lights on). Socket "D" is for a wedge bulb that cannot work with DEPO lights
Feel free to share with other Porsche owners if they have problems - the wire MUST be reinserted into the LED chamber and brought back out through the medial/inner side to get to position "B" - or else it is too short and will not work. Do not try to use Position "C".
In the meantime, looks nice and bright! Trying hard to avoid [another] rear end accident - totaled my last car from a driver chatting on her cell phone! So, I do not mind the laterals with a ever-on LED display when my headlights are on, which is always.
