Now I'm obviously not one to toss stones at customizing <grin> but WHY do you want blue bulbs all around? WHat happens when some {pick any personal description - I choose "ditzy blonde"} slams on her brakes in front of you or turns in front of you in an intersection or rear-ends you and causes a wreck because she didn't see the universally recognizable turn signal or brake lights in the color they always have been and are supposed to be, or was confused by your flashing blue turn signals? THere is a really good reason why tails, turns, and brakes are color coded - we get conditioned to them and don't have to think about it - thus delaying our response times. I'm sorry, but I think you're wrong on that one - get legal indicator lights.

For us car guys, our vehicles express who we are.......we should be able to make them unique........Just stay legal.
