Yeah you're right, I can't believe I didn't realize that myself... I'm just too cheap, I actually don't have opinion of mine own on which one I really like and which one I don't. Man, I'm really glad you helped me out with that...

Having purchased the car, I reserve the right to make any damn modification to it I please. Personally, I think it's senseless to spend $900 (or whatever it is) for the Euro lenses when removing the amber piece leaves neat, perfectly clear lenses that look great with my hyper-white bulbs. But I wouldn't be calling people cheap or other derogatory words just because their mod didn't match my idea of what looks good.

for the owner that went the Euro way, did you install a orange lens for the turn signals or did you take a chance with the stock-white bulb?

You actually meant orange bulbs (not orange lens) right?
I left mine with the stock clear bulbs, it's legal here in California. And since the mine has the diffuser, the light isn't as bright.

I had once bought a set of Euro-housings and since they didn't fit (no one at the time made a harness) I decided to return them for my HKS exhaust. Since then, I decided to clear them out myself. I personally like the "home-made" clear corners much better. It has this nice chrome reflector of the turn signals that really matches the reflector part of the high-beams. Maybe, it is just because everyone I knew said I was stupid for paying almost one grand for a pair of head lights . Well, at least I got a nice exhaust now .
