Although not something I would personally do. I must say the quality of work looks exceptional. They look much better recessed.

Time for a White 968/S2 Wing!! I think the replica's are made in UK, so that should help if you go that way.

How hard is it to install 968 tail lights on a 944/951?

most people would just swap the 968 back end on there...
