Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
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.

I bought Spyder taillights from Carid. We lug and play and the look a lot like the street corner set. I kept the stock set if I ever decide to sell the car though I doubt it.
I have had both the Depo and the Spyder lights. The Depo are better made but they are in the 997 pattern which I decided I didn't like. I use the Spyder lights, they look great, work great, and look like an LED version of the 996 pattern.
Your taste is spot on...when my son is driving and I am driving behind him they look fantastic. Some folks struggle with the fact that they look like 997 lights but I am ok with that since my 996 is almost all 997 mechanicals anyway.,🙂
Mine kinda looks like a 997 from the front already, so I'm not bothered by the tail lights looking like a 997.
I've had people tell me I shouldn't modify my car from what the factory built. (I changed my profile picture due to the hate messages)
These same people love Singer and Magnus Walker, and Sharkwerks.
I don't get it.
I bet if Magnus built a 996 with headlight covers and LED tail lights, they would call him a genius!
Ha, I have a beard, and the length sometimes is a bit long.
I've been mistaken many times for Jamie Hyneman, so I'm almost famous.
I've had Customs in NY, TSA in Midland TX, Police in Houston, people walking down the street in LA, and people in restaurants all over ask me if I was "the MythBuster's guy."
My family now doesn't react when I'm asked that. (Ho hum, nothing new)
It has happened MANY dozens of times.
The most recent was last weekend at Sea World in San Antonio.
But I'm no genius...nor famous.
Want to know what TexSquirrel looks like, watch MythBusters.
Reviving this old thread..
Can anyone with these tail lights chime in on how long they've lasted through the years? Still having dead LED problems? Would you still recommend them several years later?
