Just arrived from Germany...

Thanks to Ryan @ Suncoast, they arrived sooner than we thought!

991 Clear Tail Lights - but no install instructions, hehe. Can anyone give me a few tips for removing the 991 tail lights and installing these?

I'm about to go tinker around but thought I'd post this first just in case someone has a good idea. If nothing else, I'll call the local dealership but I'd love to get these on without resorting to that

Very simple. I believe (2) bolts per side and pull assembly toward you, assuming you're standing behind the car

Do post pictures please.

Hi thanks, I raised the spoiler, underneath there is a cover to the side over the bolts that I can just almost seem to pry off but I won't force it too much and it's not popping off by itself - so I'm stuck at this point. In frustration I washed the car instead, lol. If I ever get them on I'll post a pic

Really! Oh wow okay - I will give it another go. I wanted to pry a bit more but needed a word of confidence. Thank you so much, really appreciate you taking the time to respond and for the link. I will report back.

Nicoli, thanks for posting the clear side markers the other day. Will love to see what the clear tail lights look like when done! Thanks, Again.

Thanks to I'mAllIn!! You saved the day over here Once the covers are popped off the rear tails come off easy as pie. About as plug-and-play as you can get, way to go Porsche!









(when activated they are red like the regular tails)

Nice. Clear doesn't work with all colors, but works nicely with yours.

Really looks terrific with your color combo. It would probably look great with Agate grey, as well. Great job!
