Rick. Be proud! You've tapped into another awesome product for Rick's Accessories. Really went out of your way to hear owner's requests on these (clear) turn signal diffusers mimicking the amber ones. I saw Raul's car today and was stunned at how much more professional the clear diffusers look than the JDMs (and no disrespect to those that *have* JDMs and like them)...with the JDMs you just "see" everything in the corners. The clear diffusers do their job -- diffuse. Elegant look. Excellent product. Great job!

Looks great! But are they legal in Maryland or not?

Guys, the install went surprisingly well! The cleared lenses look fantastic. I've got plenty of pics to share but my ClubPhoto account won't accept pics at this time for some weird reason and I just returned home from Richmond.

It was funny to see some folks give a for the HyperWhite blue lights and honestly at first, I resisted. Finally, earlier today in Richmond, the blue inside really bothered me. I took them out and replaced them with the clear OEM wedge bulb (no ambers exist for this wedge size) and the very bottom side marker lamp was replaced with an amber bulb (same as the ones that come with the JDM clear side markers).

Now, I think it looks PRISTINE!!!

Expect pics sometime tomorrow.

Thanks!

I love the look. I just don't think I am willing to go through with that. It just seems like a ton of work and plenty of opportunities to screw up my car. Can I pay to have mine converted so I don't risk screwing them up and how much might this cost me?

Well, anyone can easily distingush the differences between this one and the real JDM headlights, and I wont go for it(I got mine JDM ones already), its all about style. btw it doesnt matter how careful you are, doing such a job will always create a chance screwing up your car.
