There was a thread on this not too long ago but I searched and couldn't find it.
I just pulled mine out of a box -- getting ready to work on the car some more -- and I noticed this marking on the back side of the fiberglass.

Jim,
I don't want to get overly political here, and I certainly appreciate and support our law enforcement personnel; however, being stopped on a public thoroughfare with no suspicion of wrongdoing to be questioned by an officer shining a flashlight into your vehicle and perhaps into your face, and making you late by virtue of the resulting traffic jam, is a violation of civil liberties IMO. That said, drunk drivers are way up high on my shit list (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) so if these tactics work then I'll just...keep avoiding the checkpoints. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) Yep I have been cuffed and questioned in the back of a squad car before too, way back when I was a kid, but that's a story for another day. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) Anyways, work keeps getting in the way of progress but I finished a reasonable 10-foot rattle can paint job, assembly and installation of one side. I think the grey will look decent and will post a full-car pic soon. Worst case, the way I wired them up, the stock assemblies can be easily swapped back in place in a few minutes. I will try to do an A/B test of the LED brake light vs. incandescent too -- the LED 'looks' very bright but it's hard to tell unless they're both lit up side-by-side. |
