I am stuck with a 2006 Cayenne S with Bi Xenon and one hella nasty housing on driver side. From other videos is seems the driver side does deteriorate faster and worse than passenger side.

Teddy Pal Visions says:

Whatsup Kevin, I have the same Cayenne. Was wondering if you would have any updated links for the adapters that would work? Seems like they're discontinued/unavailable. Or if it were possible to modify the stock ones like you were saying for the high beams

Sahaj Jhingan says:

Well Demonstrated kevin . Love the upgrade .
I will try giving it a shot at my Cayenne .

Do you need 2 different separate adaptors for low and high beam ?

Thanks

Stephen M says:

Sweet! I've got a 2009 Cayenne and was wondering if I could do the conversion myself. Thanks

MM says:

What codes do you get when using non can bus led bulbs?

marc f says:

What are the codes you can get using led bulbs without can bus?

Ahsan Ahmed says:

Hi any problems with canbus? Error messages??Tia

John Adair says:

Thanks Kevin. Is there any opportunity to screw up the adaptive headlights doing this conversion?

Aleks Vurmeski says:

Hi Kevin, the Alikee led conversion kit is not available do you recommend another kit suited for the porsche cayenne 958?

Zephyr Ge says:

Fantastic Tutorial Kevin! I have a question tho, I saw the Aukee brand in the video also has a fan cooled 18000lumen version of the h7 LEDs, would you recommend that over the fanless one? My car is a 2010 panamera turbo and I think I have D1S for low beam and H7 for both high beam and steer assist light. Is there a good D1S led that I can pick up?

Frank Leonard says:

I have a 2004 Porsche cayenne, what adapters do I use ????

mac daddy says:

Better off with the halogen bulbs in the winter to melt snow and ice.

Ewen Chung says:

Thanks for sharing can you provide the link where you get the adapter?

Zahid Pervez says:

I am confused, I got 16 Panamera, so the H7 you are replacing looks like thats for high beam on mine and D1s for low beam.

Patrick Ossenkop says:

There are some legitimate improvements available for the headlamps on the Cayenne (Philips X-tremeVision or check danielsternlighting.com for Vosla 65w H7s) but installing "drop-in" LEDs is not good advice. LED replacement headlamp bulbs do not meet certain dimensional standards for replaceable light sources set by FMVSS 108, and exceed the luminous flux standards for replaceable light sources established by FMVSS 108. LED replacement headlamp bulbs may, in certain applications, create excessive glare or brightness for oncoming drivers. Germany recently legalized some Osram-branded LED H7 replacements for CERTAIN vehicles. No Porsches are on the list, but the bulbs tested terribly anyway.

Hi Kevin, 
What a joy to watch you tinker with interesting stuff. 
Since you mention our 996: 
As you know the 996 has plastic diffusers and oftentimes they turn yellow due to excessive heat of the extra white bulbs.
Do you fear to "fry" yours with the new bulbs? How hot do they really get? These headlights have not ventilation whatsoever.
Thank you again,
Peter

Nice job nice job I went and got my transfer case replaced by Porsche thanks thanks for the information you're providing

Doski says:

Thank you Kevin! Love the upgrade. They should've came like that imo

Bryan Nguyen says:

This is exactly I want to do but this car before HID xenon right thanks Mr Kevin

Mark P says:

Why wouldn't you just wrap the plug with a little bit of electrical tape to make sure it never rattles loose?

Erol Fox says:

Did you check the beam Kevin? Often LEDs put out less light & poor cutoff

Eddie R says:

Interesting headlamp assembly.

OC853 says:

Should work on a 16 cayenne base right Kevin?

Mike Bell says:

Good Job Kevin, Stay warm out there

Hemlawk AKA EDK says:

Good vid.
Unfortunately I still have to wait a year until I'm able to get a 996. Hopefully the value doesn't increase too much by then 🙂

Andrii Kifiak says:

Awesome job! My future upgrade on the list! Thank you Kevin!
