    Just a quick question about the corner lights on some of the tacos on TW...I've noticed some head light set ups actually have a yellow or orange colored plastic in the top corner lights...I notice this more with trucks that have the BHLM...but I still see most trucks just have a clear plastic corner lens ....are people adding the yellow/orange color when they have the light apart for the BHLM?

    No, some people do BHLM and some buy the revtec ebay oem BLHM look-a-likes. Those are the ones with the oranger corners, the oems are more yellowish. The corner relectors are a bit different color too.

    OEM non BLHM....

    Revtec ebay BLHMs...

    The blinker and parking light is more orange on Revtecs and more yellow on OEMs.
    The relector on OEM seems brighter orange than on the Revtecs.
    OEMs with BLHM done will have yellower blinker and parking light, with brighter orange reflector
