    Those are the ones I already have that I took a picture of in my first post. They are good and doesnt hyperflash, but still show yellow in the reflectors.

    :D I guess the “egg yolk” is from a regular incandescent bulb. Thats the term i heard them referred to in the past.

    BLACK SHARPIE. take the bulb out and use a black permanent marker and paint it black. the bulb is opec so it will blink orange when on and not show when its off.

    It's definitely the first time I've heard the term. I bet a lot of guys like it. They like anything more than white chrome :rofl:

    I like the colored reflection in the housings. I have yellow bulbs in my high beams that reflect nicely. Subtle touch.

    I got these as well and like them a lot. No hyperflash with the MESO Total Tails Stage 1. Can't say anything about the "egg yolk" effect as I have smoked turn signal covers.

    You got pics of the smoked turn signal covers? You pass safety check with those?

    So far no problem but I also have switchback halos.
    This is the best picture I could find showing the cover.

    I wish i had put the smoked plexiglass covers on the turn signal bucket when I did the BHLM last week but decided not to. I cut and shaped them but decided not to install it.

    Shucks!
    I’m happy I did. I have since even seen people who went with the amber cover and even though I initially was on the fence about them, some builds have definitely changed my mind. Not sure if you want to open your lights again but I heard that the second time is even easier as far opening the seal.

    I think the Retro Rubber will be much easier then the permaseal. That was a Bitch to remove and I probably wouldn’t do it again.

    Strange, I have the Meso Total Tails 1 too and mine don't hyperflash. Are you running LED's aside from these and the tails?

    My bad. Just saw that. It’s supposed to say “no hyperflash” , not “new”.

    Fixed my original post.

    Yes, they are. I installed all 6 of them back in July and haven't had any issues since then in about 5k miles of driving as well.
