Good work Simon. I know you offered this when you installed my Orions. It looks good and clean, but I am happy with the way the originals look. I don't mind the gaps, but it sure does look beastly. Once again you are the man!!!

I've stupidly used it on my side marker, and ended up just tossing them out because of how messed up it looked to me.
When I used it to get rid of glue around the ring, I could actually get it back to regain its shine to 80%.

But yes, Great Job Simon

There is an optional night controller function offered with the AE's on Umnitza's site - turning on the low beams will decrease light output.

Haha, sorry, I forget to check my own thread.

I am actually offering this as an option for when I do the Orion install. It's definitely a special intro price right now, lol, so I don't want to publicly post it as it may not stay the same in the future.

Anyway, a pic for a recent install! Really nice and full, hmmm
