I have blue on a Ti-gray car. I would say that in bright sunshine, you aren't really going to see much of anything except for maybe some color where it is bouncing off the door. Besides that.............you really aren't going to see much in daylight.

Oh........so you just want a pic showing how well they fit?
If you look under your side view mirrors, you will see where they would go and it's fits pretty flush and pretty tight, so all you are gonna see if a clear piece of plastic sort of in a triangular shape.......and that's only if you get down there and look. I'll search and see if I can find any, but is that what your asking for?

Here's one with the lights on, but not at night. These are not RR's exact version, but very, very close.

I have issues with the clear plastic part which is causing a bit more of a delay. Also, I haven't been able to work on it nor respond to PMs until now because my grandfather (86) is in the hospital and possibly diagnosed with cancer... we're waiting to hear from the doctor/tests right now.

I'm making the last part over again to finish and ship the patiently waiting people with orders. The part I'm remaking is the clear part where the light shines in the picture above. You can pay, if you like.

I'm sure I have them Scott, but I'm at work right now. You'll have to check later this evening....................I'll see if I have on this computer, but I don't think I do.


Hey.............I found them on this machine also, so they are on the way to you at your E-mail addy.


Also, I can help you put them in, but with my broken heel..........I won't be doing a lot of moving around. But..............since some of it is done off the car, I can do that part!

Check your Gmail Swoope..............they are on the way!

I need to look at home and see if I have others, but I think these are the correct ones.
Look back here for conformation later or check your gmail later on this evening for an update.

Cool.....if you ever lose it for some reason, give a shout as I have it saved several places on at least two machines.
Uhhh....I actually created subdirectories for all those online manuals that could be downloaded, and then subdirectories of all stuff I have installed. If the instructions weren't electronic, then I scanned them in. I haven't caught all the way up and still have some in hard copy, but eventually I'll scan them all in.

Those were the correct ones..................did you get them Scott? I did send them from my work E-mail, so it might look weird coming from some company.

Anyway, if you didn't get them, then Shaz provided a link below.
