A little technic we call de-tanog'd , cheap to do but very effective ,

This should help Mods see clear lights section

You can make a nice pair of "Pat Butcher" ear rings out of these once you have drilled some holes in them for some hooks :-



Mine before :-



And after :-



Don't forget you will need some WY21W 12V 21W Silver Vision indicator bulbs to go with this mod. When unlit, the silver coating blends into the shiny reflector, but when lit, it flashes orange to comply with all the legal requirements.

I spy with my little eye something begining with B... as in blue poilce grill lights...

quality!



BTW if you're taking the trouble of removing the orange bits, why do you also not matt black the inner bits?

Looks so much nicer than having all that chrome cak in there!

If you wanna see the b4 and after of that, check out DREAM's JDM STi in the for sale section, theres pics of his car and some pics show it b4 that mod and after!
