Guys,

looking at your pics, I see you have orange bulbs into the turn-signal lights. Don't you think it would be better to replece them with the chrome ones, that European cars have got from the factory? Like this one here

You will get an even more clear look, aside to the stickers

Talking about these bulbs that are so visible, looking from the front. (Taken from KnIgHtCoM's post)

Yep! I did it all around... then your sticker should complete the look

THANKS Nick,

I'm sure they are great, I'm not harsh on suppliers i dont want everyone to think that, its just Umnitzas practices really upset me , i got a lot of heat for that, but in the long run i was proved to be right.

anyway, as soon as i get them in i will take pics and try to take pics of the installation process.

Do i have to cover the lens when washing the car?

No, you don't have to take care of anything ...other than to clean the the area carefully before application from insects, wax etc. with a sponge with some drops of dishwashing liquid on it and water. No car-care products because they include chemicals/wax, that they won't help at all. No alcohol, you will destroy the headlights. Just water with fat/grease removing liquid and you are ready to go. (I will show you the application procedure tomorrow)

Leave 1-2 days after application and then you can do everything you like on them, you can even machine polish them (no joke).
No worries, they won't have problems at all

The most important part of the job is the good surface cleaning from insects/oil/dust/wax before sticking.

Hmm, I think I'll order a set after I order my stickers. Great advice!

But how difficult are those bulbs to change? I don't need to take my headlight out right?
