yeah, everything is done myself. Guess i'll post pics on the side marker/signal when i mount my casing on the second head light.

they're amber SMD strips, you can find them anywhere on ebay. Wiring is a bit ugly, but will show it next post.

sorry I was talking about the actual reflectors. I'm assuming you made them yourself by molds and what not right?

more info on the setup.

Highbeam: I tap the solenoid into the 9005 DRL/highbeam. The solenoid will be activated with the highbeam mode, but would not do so under DRL mode (5V vs 12V).
Side blinker: I Tapped 3 wires into the dual-filament signal bulbs and used a cross circuit set up to do this. The side markers will be on when parking lights are on. When signal light is turned on, it creates a feedback loop that shuts off the side blinker (so you'll see an alternate front on, side off --> front off, side on).

btw, will be selling my spare headlights. PM for details

Looks great, Andrew. Unique design for our cars on the alternating signal inside and outside.

thanks! I think the shrouds make a difference too. Market shrouds don't cover the reflector bowl and looks too busy in the mean time... go $1 doggie bowls.

the other unique thing about it is the black reflecting tape now covers up the amber reflectors.
