Looks good! You gonna run amber bulbs or switch out to clear? I ran ambers in mine for a while and a couple weeks ago, switched to clears. They look alot better with clears when lit up.

You dont like the way you did yours? Not sure on the fitment yet, they seemed to stick out a little but Im not sure if theres a way to adjust them. Ill have to check tuesday when I have time.

Yeah, just get the clear 3057 rather than the 3157NA, get the clear 3157LL
ahh ok. Ill have to see how I like these first. Are the clear ones legal?

Clear 3157 are not legal cause its a white lite not orange colored........
To much oil will not really hurt the engine but if anything it will raise the oil pressure a smidge but drain the excess asap..Now if its always a quart over then the over pressurized oil will most likely lather up with air infused and be less efficient at lubeing bearings and most likely over time blow stem seals..

Idk, I don't really like mine lol
It's not that running clear is illegal since you would only have 4 bulbs without your fogs it's not haveing amber that would be illegal
