Sken · Aug 29th, 2006, 08:58 PM

try a set of these. i love the clear indicator lenses. got them of ebay for a bargain price

Smub · Aug 29th, 2006, 09:04 PM

Much prefer the standard lights!/ Do the white lights have the chrome surrounding like the stock lights? (can't tell 100% by your pic). I think that might make a big difference to the overall appearance.

Never have liked the all whites, going back to the original is a definite improvement.
