You need to change the front turn bulbs to invisibulbs, to lose the "egg yolk" effect.

I got the signal bulb from John but I get error code. Simon has it installed in his car but no error code but mines does... It gets so annonying that I had to put back the original. With the led signal bulbs I'll be driving and the "ding" sounds on and gets annonying..

Tim, I knew that was your car when I saw the interior pics! Your car is the only one I have seen with that kind of setup.

I see you put the visors back in the front? What happened to the two TVs in the front?

And next time you're down here, I will do your turn signals for you.

Btw, insane miles for it being a year old! At least your Vegas trips are paying off, lol.
