Please check with him before cracking with the installation of additional ‘non-porsche’ equipment e.g. whether this could affect your/his work warranty.

It’s your car and you do what you want with it at the end of the day. But I have a feeling that Jake would appreciate that you do nothing to it (additional) until your borrowed 3.4 ecu, upcoming tuning, and electronic is settled and are signed-off.

My headlights are the best-in-the-world Rick loll Yes. Public knowledge; two of the Porsche Service Center mechanics here in Shanghai have my headlights on their 996s and not shy to occasionally refer other individuals to me which I’m very happy to service myself. However you know as much as I do that other experts may not always share the same visions about non-porsche equipment.

So again. Do nothing with your headlights until Jake tells you go (my advice).

Ps: my indy refused to install an $160 aftermarket 80amp Bosch battery in my car today, one that I found on sale. He demands $420 for his “Porsche branded” battery or walk away from my shop he told me :/ Porsche love. Nothing wrong with that, I’m not complaining here (I actually bought his overpriced battery at the end to make him happy again lolll)

Thanks for the clarification on your comments and let me know if/when you have headlight gaskets available. I do happen to agree your headlights are the best and I haven't installed them yet They sure do look good on my workbench

You can decode my frenchglish québecois writing. I'm actually also writing Chinese Rick (aprox 500 characters) which is often sufficient to leave a written note for the Ayi (maid). Apologies if the previous msg didn't came in obvious mate

I'll give it my best shot RE the seals Rick, can't promise. Haven't seen this chap for a while and I think I'm the one who went off radar when he sent out his offer (500pairs = 1,000 pcs) $1 each he wanted me to pay upfront $1,000 :/ We'll see, worth checking... I'll ring him on Monday (fingers crossed)
