    Ya they turned out very nice, the only bad part is during full sunlight the sequential are hard to see but the ones on the front of the mirror can be seen very well

    Damn that looks good! Is the sequential arrow thing a pre-built unit, or did you make that?

    It cost about 30 bucks and about 3 hours, I probably could have done it faster but I took my time

    Looks amazing! Great job on this mod!

    I'm curious, how do they look in the daytime? How do the holes that you dremeled look?

    In the day the sequential part in the mirror is barely noticeable but where the holes are drilled on the face of the cover, those are very bright and can be seen in full on sun. I also filled those holes with a clear epoxy to keep water out.
