    Ok so heres my story, i did the mod yesterday and got it put back together and on the truck and then realized i forgot the turnsignal cover lense or what ever its called (little yellow piece of plastic) it looks ok i guess and my turnsignals are bright enough the only thing is i just have a bulb chillin in there. I cant decide if its worth ripping the whole assembly and doing it over because the paint is going to chip just to put those on... what do you guys think tare it appart or leave it alone.

    Look up your laws to make sure it's not illegal.
    If you are ok with it and it's legal....Fook it- no reason to rework it unless you need to.
