Any interest in amber or clear turn signals for the Mk. 1?



Thanks for the positive input.  My intention was to reproduce the stock 
exactly.

I actually don't like the look of clear turn signals either, however I have 
been told there is a much larger demand for them than for the amber.  As 
far as the smoked ones go, I haven't even begun looking into making the 
lenses.  I put it on the Vortex Poll to see if there was any interest.

I am still working out the price with the production shop.

I am planning on bringing a set of amber and clear down to ND so that 
everyone can see what they look like in person.
