Anyone try these bulbs before?
These bulbs supposedly light up your license plate in a xenon white color as opposed to the yellow halogen stock bulbs. No affiliation. Just curious. Not even sure if they work with the 986, but they say it works with 997, and have a sample photo at the bottom of the link: http://www.hoen-usa.com/licenseplate.htm

i bought LED "festoon" bulbs off ebay...

and VERY cheap

Lucky,
Aren't you just making it easier for NTTA to take a picture of your plates when you blow through the tollbooth with your led lights? I keep my plates dark  For as much money as I spend on tolls, if they miss me once or twice, I consider it a rebate (jk).

nah, i have a tolltag and don't drive the tollway unless i have to
lighted plates give them less of a reason to pull me over... unlike my boy with the 996 with bad plate wiring so they don't light up... reg up to date, no warrants, all lights working = drive on by, mr. policeman
this is who i bought from... multiple times (i've done license plates, door courtesy lights, dome lighting, front & rear trunks)... fast shipping and product works w/ no DOA each time .. i have no affiliation, just a good experience
