Brake Ducts / Lighting

[plhorner]

Has anybody got these fitted to their car? If so, is the light a fog light or side light?

Sorry, picture embedded!

Its got to be a side light - legal requirement.

Don't be so sure. While it's a legal requirement to have sidelights, it's not a legal requirement for these units to include them.

Many end up having to add an additional bulb holder for side lights in to the main headlight units.

I have a same moulding but with the Hella fog light (Micro DE)

Then mounted the sidelights in the headlight bowl

So now my headlights look like this

Thanks for all your responces and it confirms what I thought.
I'm actually quite surprised, the kit I'm looking at is advertised as OE Porsche (and I've seen it fitted in the past) and was wondering what the OE solution was to the side light issue. I'm sure there's somebody on here that has a car that's had it from new?

I have had some people suggest that there's a cut-out in the back of the clear indicators that will accept a side light, however the OE Porsche units I've just fitted don't seem that have that!

I had the genuine Tecequip ones on my 4S - you loose the fog lights and the side light is retained in the new unit.
The side light is the square Hella part (just like caravan sidlights!)

Thanks all for the advice, I managed to source a set of Genuine Porsche ducts fitted with side lights...which I've now upgraded to LED's to match the (very white) HID's.
I've gone for the street fighter look temporarily (satin black) but will consider body colour when the front bumber get a 'refresh'....which it badly needs by the look of the photo!!
