The plate light bulbs are as bright as the factory LED package lights. We've been very happy with them. We had these built specifically for the new Cayenne, and the proper electronics to prevent any warning lights.

I used style 194 for all the lights in the interior except the front dome light area. The dome light area came factory with LED's. Which is strange because my Panamera did not come with LED's in that area.

I would recommend this style of 194's which have more lights.
Amazon Amazon
(THIS IS ONLY AN EXAMPLE)
You should do some research and see which brand you like the most and have the desired light output you want. They are very cheap so buy a few different styles and see what works the best.

Suncoast also has a full interior LED Light kit. Everything I have bought from them has been top-notch. They have never once let me down. So you can always go that route.

Several places to get interior kit, like here: http://www.ecstuning.com/News/Porsch...010_2011_2012/
http://www.suncoastparts.com/product...egory_Code=CLS

I have bought from the following places before ala carte on all my cars and the quality, service, and price is fair (you want higher lumens)

cayguy0521, ive purchased LED bulbs from an autoshop nearby my house. just gave them the specific bulb types and they showed me what they had, i've changed all of the factory lights within my cayenne and their all LED now.... i never had a problem with the LED lights not working, if it didn't instantly turn on i rotated the buld 180 degrees and tried again and it worked... hope this helps

also the bulbs im holding are all footwell lights and door puddle lights plus glovebox and trunk sidelights.

The factory extended LED pkg costs almost $1000 in Canada, and you don't get any extra lights, license plate LEDs are not part of the pkg, this is a list of exactly what LEDs you get: 4 footwell, 4 door edge, 2 trunk edge, 2 exterior mirror puddle, 1 glove compartment, 1 trunk ceiling, 4 makeup mirror(2 bulbs per mirror), 14 LEDs in total, and you can get them from any auto accessory store for less than $100, including the license plate LEDs.
Frankly speaking, I prefer the make up mirrors to be in incandescent as it gives a much nicer facial color. So it is best to DIY, replace whichever ones you want and save $$$$

my cayenne is 2012 year so yes the 958 model. i live in toronto canada. the LED bulbs you have "might" not be the greatest bulbs, i spent quite a while searching for bulbs online and its a lot cheaper than i expected but shipping to canada is expensive. Therefore i decided to just buy from a close-by store. The Total i've spent was around $55CND

The LED lights bought from suncoast were for the Panamera. Works for the Panamera becuase there isnt anything coving or housing the light bulb. Didnt work we'll for the cayenne because the housing would circulate the heat, eventually burning out. It has even burned my housing, maybe that is why suncoast took it off their site.

i've tired an outside market that provides interior and exterior LED lights for many car manufactures, this is what i mean by over heating.

the ones i've purchased from Suncoast didn't melt apart but did burn out.
