Hello all! I'm looking for a set of
Cayman S
LED
taillights. I had a set of early ones, sold them, but I'm hoping someone is selling theirs.
Thanks!
What do mean by "early ones"? The
987.1
didn't come with factory
LED
taillights, so is there a specific type of aftermarket lights you're looking for? Aftermarket
LED
retrofits are getting harder to find - most of the sites I tried to order some from showed "out of stock", and when I inquired about availability, it turns out that meant "no longer available"
For what it's worth, last year, I ended up hunting down the supplier of the lights I wanted (JTEC) in Taiwan and ordered a set directly from them. Thankfully, they still make them and sell directly to customers worldwide. The quality is better than OEM, and they've dramatically improved the look of my car:
Thanks, the early ones I had were from DEPO. Do you have a contact for the ones you bought? I've contacted
Spyder
who says some
LEDS
will be in stock in July. Thanks!!

The DEPO ones aren't manufactured anymore from what I understand (except maybe in the black/clear color combo if you can find them). The ones in your photo are like mine (manufactured by JTEC). They offer a few different styles. I chose the DP104-CR (clear/red), which is the one shown in all of the photos above. They also have a smoked version called the DP104-SR (smoked/red). Here's a link to their website:
J.TEC INTERNATIONAL CO., LTD.

To talk to someone, you can e-mail Jacob at Jtec. He's super responsive and helpful and will coordinate the entire ordering process:

Check out their pricing, as you may find it cheaper than ordering from a US based vendor. You're basically cutting out the middleman markup. Even with Fedex 3 day shipping and tariffs, I ended up better off buying direct.
Thanks I've asked Jacob for pricing etc. thank you!!!
Yes thanks, I may get some from them.
There are very few "in stock" lights anywhere. eBay is ridiculous - some asking $1500-2500 for a set of
LEDs
. Vivid Racing expects stock in mid/July.
Amazon
are all drop shipped from Taiwan or China. Best I have found is either
Amazon
with a late July delivery or JTEC direct from Taiwan. The lights want are all about $700 delivered. Some
LEDs
get as low as $480 but they are very old designs.
