    Well, I found some free time today and worked on a light I got off a Saabaru. My apologies, however, it's a bit scratched (came out of a wreck), but I wanted to see if it broke down like the rest. It does, and much to my suprise the light looks incredible when its had some work done to it! See the photos below.

    If you are interested in having this service done, please post in our thread in the for-sale section and / or send us a PM or IM (tenthstjdm).

    I have additional pictures upon request, however, I will throw some of the highlights in here (including the config options I could think of):

    Here we have the OEM lamp.

    OEM once again except with our chrome / amber bulb.

    A close up of the unmodified lamp housing with the chrome bulb.

    Amber removed ("cleared") w/ the oem amber bulb.

    Amber removed w/ the chrome bulb.

    Blacked out without bulbs installed...

    Finally, blacked out with the amber removed and the oem amber bulb.

    I ran out of daylight to get decent photos of the blacked out lamp with our chrome bulb and with the amber reinstalled (which looks schnazzy), so I will shoot a few more tomorrow.

    Cheers,
    Alex

    Well good news and bad news kids...to pull the lamps you have to drop the front bumper...I was not about to do that in the rain today either. I'll work on it whenever the the weather clears up this week.
