Update: Brightness of brake vs tail light is very very good at night. Safe to say the brake lights are near "blinding" level if you look right at them, which given the small surface area Porsche decided to devote to brake lights, is a good thing.

Cleaning the sockets is critical. I ground mine with a Dremel, both the rear contacts and the barrel. I had to work on the sockets a bit to get the LEDs to stay lit after install (they'd light when laying on the bumper, but I'd install them and no dice. Took 3-4 tries.) Wonder if/how that might become a problem down the road as corrosion rebuilds.

Fitment and everything else is superb. 100% happy with the product! (Just recommend you create and include an install sheet in case your n00b customers haven't seen your YouTube video - at least point them to it in the box somewhere.)
