Hi. I like the ad pictures and stuff with the re-wired tail lights. A member site (http://www.amesweb.com/blake/howtos.html) give a howto, but I am wondering what this really does. Can anyone tell me? Do I really switch the Top 2 bulbs? If I do, what exactly will be the outcome?

Thanks,

tails

it will show yellow (like in the picture) whenever taillights or brake lights are on. and your blinker will be the red part of the light instead of the yellow that it used to be. I think it looks cool.

I think I am going to change mine to red. what i will do is cut the yellow lense out (like some have done) and put red LED bulbs in place of the yellow that are there. so it will kind of be like half clear taillights. I think it'll be cool.

what would you rather have? a damaged steering wheel grip or a steering wheel cover? I only have it because you can see all the scratches in my steering wheel without it. And your blackouts look like they should be on a white trash camaro. And volvos are cool, and faster then maximas

LOL

chill dude. The blackouts look better then the queer mismatching glass corner lights...it looks so stupid how they're a different color/design glass then the regular heads (and its even worse with clear corners). If it's that bad you could change out your steering wheel also, but if the cover works for you whatever it's all good. And the only tight volvo's are the C70's...and yes, that is fatser then most maxima's. But for it's 50k sticker I can take basically any 3rd VE, 4th, 5th gen max and make it faster...and still have a big chunk of change left over.
