I think someone's gonna make a bunch of coin if they can get the 997.2 LED look for 997.1s!!!
Not that I have found yet, unfortunately. Here's a cool post on converting 996 TT rear lights to 997.2 LEDs- I'm sure the process would be similar for 997.1. Very nice 996 TT

The rear light swap is fairly simple for the Gen I cars, not sure about the front LED's. Has anyone done the front? Any feedback?

Cool- what is involved with swapping the gen II rear lights onto a gen I 997?

The most complex part is finding a new rear bumper or modifying it to fit the new lights. Our kit comes with the lights, rear light control module, and new adapter plugs. You also get the choice of the standard red LED's, or the 2010 clear lights.

These items are plug and play, no modifications. The only exception is for Turbo & GT2 models (they're much more complex and require more parts) and 2008 model Carreras (the new control module is already installed in 2008, you just need the lights and the adapter plugs).

I wish a vendor would make a retrofit kit for 997.1's (hint wink nudge)... they would sell like hotcakes.

The LED replacement lights for the 996 look FANTASTIC. Really freshens things up.
