As far as I understand, The DRLs on a 986/996-based boxster/911 needs only a wiring hack, which cost me about $60 locally.
Good luck in your search!

Excellent idea! But I was planning on having the closest Porsche dealer (wherever I buy the car) do the PPI. Would Porsche be more expensive than if I were to have it done locally (in Quebec)? It sounds like the Speedo is something I can do. The lights, well... better get a professional to do that.
I'll also have to make certain that the work is done only after a positive inspection. I'm sure if I don't buy the car the existing owner wouldn't be too thrilled with daytime running lights and a speedometer in KMs.
