Another option for bulbs is using LED's. They are just as hidden as the "stealthed" bulbs.
Try www.superbrightleds.com. They are in the area and sell the resistor units so you do not get hyper blink. They are also the cheapest that I've found.

Oh and I forgot I have an unopened pack of two 7440 Amber LED bulbs that anyone can have if they need them.

Have ordered smoked diffusers or sidemarkers. Should have it in a couple of weeks. Sidemarkers coming from Germany.

Side note: Have pulled OEM front spoiler to fiberglass some cracks and scrapes. Car is going to body shop on Saturday to paint and install front spoiler and F1 sideskirts. Can't wait.

Well Mike, I do have one concern. The eyelids on the headlights. Not sure what is going to happen to them but we'll still give it a shot.

Was concerned about those myself. We just need to be delicate. The two sided tape supplied with the eyelids did not stick well causing the eyelids to come loose. So I fixed the problem with a bit of glue. I'll see what I can do to get them off before you do the install. Then I can't hold you responsible if one cracks (or can I?) Would rather have the smoked diffusers or sidemarkers installed. Can always purchase a new set of eyelids, if I must

Is this going to be a group project or individual? If it's going to be a group thing I can lend a hand and pull my tape at the same time.

You're bound and determined to get that tape pulled.

Right now it's just D-J and myself that are changing out defusers. I say Group effort, defuse two cars and pull your tape. It all depends on D-J and him waiting a coupke of weeks longer, since his parts will be in a couple of weeks before mine

Tom... Since you're doing the work... what do you think group effort or individual . Either way, they will look sharp.
