Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

9 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just took delivery of my 997.1 C4S Cab which has the 2008+ option of all red tail lights. Must say, I'm not 100% sold on them but was not decisive enough to get the dealer to swap them out for standard ones before it was delivered. The car is black and I tend to think that the all-reds look better on silver/lighter cars - just look a bit faded/dirty to me with dark paint. Anyone got a view ? . . . are there people out there that might want to swap their standard rear lenses with my reds ? - not sure how we'd orchestrate that as they are (obviously) attached to the car, but maybe a clandestine service station meet-up with screwdrivers at the ready ? First post here as a 911 guy . . . moving up (I hope it's UP!) from an Elise 111S . . . which is still available if anyone's interested (PH ad to be posted soon) ;-)

POST 2Original post

Or you could buy some dectane l.e.d rear lights to give the back end a modern new look these are available in red/clear red/ smoked and clear

POST 3Original post

http://www.911uk.com/viewtopic.php?p=886924&hi... I personally also prefer the standard option over the all-red. Check above Link for a pic.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Good pic find! - thanks! Yep, that's what I'm talking about - definitely looks better on lighter cars and/or cars with Aerokit or Turbo wings. Think these were about a £450 option at the time - so a swapsie might work for someone looking to sell/chop-in their (non-Black!) car ?

POST 5Original post

Hi - did you manage to find someone to trade your all-red rear lenses with???? If not I have a Silver 997.1 Turbo and am looking for all-red rear lenses!

I have a black 997.1 turbo with standard tail lights which is at Nine Excellence "9e" in Surrey. I'm sure Ken who runs 9e will be happy swap them over for you if you pop in to see him at some stage. Congrats on the superb purchase!
