body and interior "New" Italian turn signals?

[Koblenz]

If I could use ac tape seamlessly I'd consider it. Truth be told I'm not a chrome person. I would like to shave the whole car, but the current color needs contrast so for now the bumper & belt line stays. BTW chrome paint would work on the outer edges of the lens.

 

LOL.  I kept the beltline trim because of cost. Even shaved the gas cap.  Are you able to seal these up enough that they don't leak?

I'm going to eat my words now after seeing them on Rusty02s car. They look decent for the price. The seller should really add a pic of them on a car

I don't see anymore Italian versions.  Just clear

Not sure yet. I will probably seal the wiring from the elements. I will use non traditional lighting so I don't have to worry about the bulbs. Adding an OEM seal will detract from the current fitment. I like the current fit. (Flush with contour)

The amber you see on my lens is just some type of tape. Think of these lenses as a toy model. Go to a hobby shop and you'll be surprised at the many paints you'll find. I'll most likely smoke my lenses so the amber color will not matter to me.

Lol, good man.

They look good.  May have to spring.

I plan to modify the lenses to see if I can try to make them acceptable. Yes painting will be involved, also some lighting changes. (They'll look much better smoked)Finally got around to modding 

 

Finally got around to modding the lenses.  Testing was with a 9v batt...

Halo lights may be a bit much for my 02, but this is a nice alternative or addition to city light.

Obviously the amber is the turn signal, but the white LED will be DRL's

Installed the Knock-offs, not bad at 5ft, but look real from a distance. As posted before I added some DRLs inside the lens.

Can I ask what you used to give the appearance of the chrome trim around the light? It looks good. The solid amber, and clear versions of these lights are now offered on eBay for about half the original price.

Nice.  Complimentary to your car.

 

Excuse me... DRLs?

I used a chrome automotive wrap. Not cheap,but has a real chrome looking finish. Also hard to install correctly due to the contour of the lights, which is why I gave it a five foot rule.

DRL= Daytime Running Lights.

Is the metal frame of the euro light the same as the one for the US light?  Always wondered if the bulbous lens was the only difference, then perhaps something could be done using a core from any US turns and a lens similar to this one.

 

Just thinking out loud.
