It's a great upgrade and I replaced the bulbs with an LED. On a silver 2004 986 it's a great look. Now if I could get them to stay on with headlights and flash with turn signal I'd be very happy. It appears that we'd need a separate bulb mount on the housing. I thought about trying to engineer it with my old side marker bulb fixtures, but haven't got that far.

So why stop there you ask...well I didn't.

Had the flasher mod done by my audio installer.

Changed out all interior lights to LED. Replaced headlight with HID, and parking lights with LED.

Had the DRL mod done by my audio installer and replaced the bulbs with LEDs.

Replaced license plate lights and both trunks with LEDs.
