    Hey ya'll... Selling my stock mirror turn signals from my trd offroad. These have had black/smoke vinyl applied (can be removed). So, while not MESO... it does give a similar aggressive look to your rig. And, you can get them today. :cool:

    $35 - Local pickup in Seattle, or I can ship at buyers expense.

    Did you apply the vinyl yourself? Curious how easy this would be

    Very easy, I did my fog light. No experience at all. I just spray water apply the vinyl then use a squeegee(credit card) to get all the water out

    Yeah, I did this myself. The shape makes it a little difficult, although I'm an experienced tinter and have been doing vinyl films for years...

    The vinyl on these is Vivvid "light smoke" which allows 80%+ of light through. It's much lighter tint than what most folks use. There was no "terrible output to begin with" @Jukehz :cool:

    edit: it's a dry application film

    Exact same tint I used and light output was extremely poor atleast from a front view of the truck. Stock output is poor already especially compared to Meso customs. Not sure what stock turn signals your using with good output

    Agreed!! I have seen it make plastic rough feeling/looking though - especially when exposed to sun/weather.

    Ya, you'd be good with spray. Film looks a little better imho and lasts longer, but to each their own! Spray is much simpler.
