for peeps with rewired (blinnking) corners..i need some opinions

how does it look? ive never seen any with rewired corners....so i dont know what it looks like, i just recently rewired my fogs and that looks great! i am thinking about rewireing my corners also but i wouldnt mind some opinions from fellow 5th gen owners who have this done, i dont really like the clear corners, so ill probably stick with the stock colors for a while, or until i change my mind about the clears, but anyway how does it look?. i just wanna know if it is worth it to rewire them, in short, how do they look.....good, bad, worth doing? any opinions!
thanks

They look good, I mean when I hit the alarm button to lock the car, and I always am looking at the side of my car, I can now visually now that the car is locked cause I now see the side markers blink.

I think it is cool. TWO thumbs up for Russ on that "invention"

i think it looks awesome how the blinker and the corner lights flash alternating. when the blinker is off the corner light is on and visa versa. it also looks much cooler when you lock and unlock the doors as the corner lights now flash too. also very easy to do.

cool mod and you cant beat the price!

No one except a Max enthusiuast would ever notice. However is a increase in safety by doing the rewire

Nope, at least i havent heard anything about it. Love the way it looks, especially at night, get lots of looks from other maximas and its funny when they are trying to see if theirs blink too

Yeah, but make sure you tap the GREEN of the TURNSIGNAL, not the parking/stop bulb. Cause I believe there are two sets of greens back there.
