i like the rear lights, and the led mirrors are way better than the one ricetastic ones on ebay. Overall 4/5, minus 1 point for the leds not being in a straight line :P, keep it clean

The actual line for the LEDs is straight, the individual bulbs themselves glued crooked when they dried, need to clean them up a bit.

VERY nice!! I applaud the effort and the outcome.
Good job for originality.

And hey Travis!! My LED mirrors came from an eBay seller and I think they look every bit as good as the ones that come OE on Mercedes Benz (complete replacement covers, not cover-ups!!) They weren't the cheapest ones either.

Touchy, touchy, touchy... aren't we? You can call me an S.O.B. now, Travis.

Seriously though Alex, tastefully done. Very .... stealthy.

What did you use as glue to keep the individual LEDs in place?

For some reason I didnt care too much for the ones with the lense, wanted something alittle less flashy. I just used clear silicone adhesive so they won't be too bad to redo. My main problem was the lack of space to work with inside the mirror assembly.

I do understand. And I do sincerely like the look.

Congrats on a very nice, original mod.
