I've seen those smoked ones. But the ones in the pic look clear on the turn signal area. I've never seen ones like that on eBay.

I have.. They're rare and only show up from time to time...

This site has them though.

Thanks!

A little pricey, but they are cool. I'm in between wether I want to stay smoked, or go all clear. I know I'm done with the lens tint stuff. I've got it to look great. But no matter what I do, when it's lit up it show some uneveness in the "paint" and it bugs me.

I'd look forward to seeing that. I've been thinking bout getting some JY housings and frankensteining some LED panels in there. I'm just not so good with wiring/electrical.

I was thinking of taking the junkyard set I have in the garage somewhere and dremeling off the lens and then taking a silicone mold of the reflector and then stick the LEDSs to the mold and solder them together. That way it'll be dense with LEDs and will fit the contour of the reflector perfectly. At least, that's my theory... Lol

That sounds like a good idea.

I was thinking of mounting led panels in there some how. Wouldn't contour the lens. I dunno.

I'd like to see what you come up with. You still using the LED turn signal lights you made?

Yupp. The Whelen warning lights I put in there are still bright and still work. A little pricey to make, but they work perfectly and I can make them have different flash patterns if I wanted.

Meh. The cup holders are useless imho. My drinks fling across the passenger side when I take corners. Just wedge your drink between the e-brake and driver's seat.
Any weirdness? I haven't noticed anything odd yet...
