Jim, I never did get around to buying them. Probably wouldn't hurt to take a chance on them since they aren't too expensive, but I just had too many other projects and stuck with the plain old boring lights. Maybe someday I'll toy around with it.

rs899, I agree with you to some extent, although I think there are plenty of smoked tail lamps that still incorporate red and look very red when on. CDs on the mirror drive me nuts ... nothing like getting a flash of sun reflection right in your retina while trying to make a lefthand turn. And dogs on the lap, being as I am an animal person, is a big no-no. Even if you aren't going very fast and don't get in a major accident, it doesn't take much to seriously injure your dog if you have to come to a sudden stop. The airbag would kill him/her. As for cell phones ... people who don't use common sense while using a cell phone in a car are probably not going to use common sense anyway. They've probably been causing stupid accidents since long before cell phones were invented.
