Looks good. Ordering these and putting it on my 986. Thanks and your car's interior is looking great.

Here is some of my upgrades and mood lighting in the car. I went with a Bluetooth light that is able to change light color and other functions like color change with speed etc..

pretty cool setup. I like the illuminated windblocker. I'd guess that would cause a lot of difficulty seeing in the rearview with a normal mirror like I have.

I already have LED tail lights, but I'm considering another upgrade there, since there are now some full LED ones with dynamic turn signals that either weren't available when I got mine, or I just didn't look hard enough.

First things first, though. There's a place here that will repair and restore my leather seats for $100/each, so I need to get that done before anything becomes irreparable.

I also have these classic Porsche side stripes on the way. I got them in light grey to go on my Black car. (Trying to stay subtle on the outside)

Looks like you've researched these a little bit? Waddya know about them? Quality? Fit? Have you found other pics and videos of them installed?
I quite like the idea of the dynamic turn signal.

I can't speak to those things. I just like the dynamic signals, and I think they look great in the video. I've seen them on ebay both in smoke and clear with red framing or black framing around the outside. The clear/red ones were $299, the clear/black are $370 and the smoke ones are $560. I'll go for the smoke if I get them, although the clear/black would look good on my black car too.
