They look different. Dectanes are more similar to 997.2 OE lights.

 

Dectanes have their own wiring harness while DelRey uses original wiring harness. If you search you'll find hundreds of posts discussing the differences with lots of pictures. RoTTec and DelRey appear to be the same and Dectane and Depo are the same - Depo makes them in Taiwan and Dectane is a German distributor.

 

Del Rey:


Dectanes:


Personally, I prefer the look of the Dectanes.

 

Do a thread search, this has been discussed before...

We need 4 more, I talked with fishcake to see if he can get a "DEEPER" discount than $689. I'm a little upset Rhonda@FVD has not responded to my IM's or this thread, since I sent her the link...

 

Give her a little more time. She may be on Vacation. You could also just call her and tell her about the group buy plan. I am certain she can do something for you guys .

 

I think it best someone call FVD directly and ask for group buy discount. Email can take longer and might be pile up in their spam mails.

 

I had planned on calling them and some other vendors, but I wanted to make sure I had a solid 10 people before making empty promises about a "group buy".

 

I understand your position, good luck bro. After the 10% discount promise from Rhonda, I sent her at least 5 emails with no reply. It can be frustrate dealing with them via email.

 

I'm sure that other folks, like me, have been lurking, waiting to see whether a good deal comes up. Keep us posted in this thread, and thanks for your efforts.

 

So is this the light? And the price is US$695-10%=US$625? Includes shipping to the US?

Thx

 

Simon - it technically $700 minus $70 discount, so $630 plus shipping

 

I'd also be interested if it pans out...

 

Just got this email from Fishcake, good info!





"Dear gixxergino,

Good morning,

I sincerely appreciate you linking me to the thread in regards to this potential Group Buy. Here are a few points you may share with your forum members in regards to the DEPO Brand 997 Chassis LED Tail Light sets:

(1) We are the sole Distributor for the US/CAN Spec DEPO brand 997 LED Tail Light sets.

(2) There are two versions out on the Market for the DEPO brand 997 LED Tail Light sets. (A) Dectane - which is manufactured by DEPO and is for Euro-Spec vehicles only. (B) DEPO's US/CAN-Spec version, which we specially R&D with DEPO to manufacture for us.

(3) Dectane's 997 LED Tail Light set is the same as the ones we carry, however the main difference is that the LED chipset they used is specifically tailored to the Euro-models. This is why so many people who've purchased Dectane's Tail Lights (997) has error messages after short period usage when installing their tail light set on their US/CAN-spec vehicles.

(4) DEPO has ensured us that the LED chipset they've developed for the US/CAN-specs should be error free for the US/CAN-Specs.

This being said, we would love to set up a group buy with you. If you are able to get 10 names who are going to commit, I will be sure to run this to our supervisor to ask for his very best offer for the group buy. Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns. Thanks again for your understanding and cooperation. We look forward to your reply/confirmation and I sincerely wish you a wonderful and restful morning.

Warmest Regards,
Chris
