Looks similar to my thin clear ones on my GS. Hope the LED's are of quality and dont start going out one by one

Yeah paco those are the ones. I think part of the blown fuses is people putting resistors in places where they shouldnt be. Its a bit tricky

Hopefully ill find the time to do it today with pix

Just for the outters? That's pretty pricey, but then again, I'm poor.
