Default Custom Dynamics question

I was considering the CD inserts for my turnsignals. Currently I have have HD visors front and rear.

Can I reuse the HD lens covers and visors or do I need to replace with CD lens
covers?

Thanks

yes you can reusue, but I replaced my forward facing ones with clear lenses. Much cleaner looking since I have the Custom Dynamics signals that shine white until you turn on the turn signal.

When I installed Custom Dynamics turn signal inserts I had aftermarket smoked lens covers installed and I figured I'd give them a try and 2 seasons later they are still there. The CD LED's are super bright man. I have the ones that are white until you turn on the signal and then it flashes amber. These really help with visibility. LED lights all around is the best thing we as motorcyclists can do to make cagers aware of us.

Oem lenses were amber. new ones are clear. the amber does hamper the light output minimally and since the lights I have show white when acting as a running light and amber while the turn signal is on, it only made since to get clear covers.
