Two [extremely important] questions to ya!!! :

1) Based on your experience, would you believe that the "caps" could be re-inserted? Or are your amber "caps" in there now...and just painted over ?

2) What did you do with your *amber* caps? I know Rick's Signature Accessories has been very interested in offering alternative innards (similar to their pre-'04 diffuser options) for the '04 model's headlamp design. But as of yet, I don't believe anyone has offered them the necessary innards.

- Dave

1) yes, the caps can definitely be re-inserted. I only orange part i had painted over is the orange reflector to the side.

2) i still have my amber caps...just laying around in my trunk. so you saying for me to give ricks my innards?...

$1.79 here for premium.

Back on topic: I believe Rick's is already working on the '04+ lights. I'll PM Jeff(Stratocaster) as to their progress. Thank you, Charles, for sharing how and what parts you removed/painted. i wondered if you put anything back over the turn signal, but you've answered that question. Thanks, w1ngman, for asking said question.

Dave, when are you available?

yeah, and normally the highest octane you can get at the conventional gas station in southern california is 91. it is higher octane everywhere else it seems. what a rip.
