It also adds another light shade for the cagers to "hopefully" see.

To Drew (or whoever has them), are those the yellow stick on covers?

JBG, I read somewhere that the amber/yellow is more visible during the day, that's why you see it used on turn signals now days. You should stick out better to head on traffic but then I don't how well it would be during the night.

Beav,
What front turn signals are you running?
I have been looking at the new LED's from Harley (smoked) or just the smoked covers.
