I was successful doing the hack, but I unplugged the wire from the fuse until I know for sure the OEM bulbs will not cause damage to the lens. My thoughts are Porsche would not put a bulb in place that would burn a lens. Something else I read that was not answered. If doing the hack, what happens if you select the Fog Lights with the switch?

Your thoughts are incorrect. Every exterior light fixture can and has been burned/melted by stock bulbs. Do not use halogen bulbs as DRL.
