haven't got them back yet. We found some white CCFLs, so he's swapping them out / cleaning up the silicone and such.

I like the looks of your lights...The clear lens does look fantastic, but I do agree that the outer edge around the turn signal indicator is quite jagged from the factory, and presents a problem for the clear lenses. I have an idea to fix it, and when I attempt this, I will post up my results in a new thread. Nice work though...

Lights were finished yesterday, actually found the white CCFLs, but it took a while.

They'll be sent back to me this weekend, so I'll have pics up in a few days.


I'm thinking about wiring the rings up to a switch, so I can turn them on and off if I want
