    I like the look of them at night, but during the day, I find it difficult to tell what position the knob is at. May put a dab of white paint or something to help indicate the position.
    Still better than stock tho.

    Was there any additional taxes and or shipping costs beyond the listed $14.?? ? The listing mentions additional fees that are buyers responsibility. Also, what's the color option all about? I just thought the factory backlight color dictated that. Thanks!

    Yeah, im just not sure where the charge would come from. USPS? I know that all interational sellers are required to put that little snippet in their details section. The payment has cleared my paypal already and it has "Shipped" (from china post at least) - I guess i'll find out.

    Oh hell!!! 14 bucks... I'm in too. Looking forward to op's Orange color test. Where did you get mood podge from op and how's the fit between outside of k on and inside of bezel?

    Orange. May need another light coat with more red. I'll know for sure when it's fully dry and test fitted.
    Mod podge can be found at craft stores for 2 bucks or Amazon.

    Looks great and seems like a good match. The Orange on my Tacoma seems a little less bright compared to my wife's xterra. Was thinking about using an orange sharpie. Since it's not going to be in an area where it'll get touched it might work???
    What was your ratio of red to yellow/ drops per bottle?
