The housings were like $50 iirc they were new in the wrapper, I forgot you need the lens for the lights too, when you buy the lights they don’t have a lens, you can get clear or pretty much any color you want, still gotta hook them up or maybe I won’t still undecided kinda want to make them running lights when that setting is selected on the headlight switch

Keep in mind that if you use Red, Blue or Green lights, you need an insurance rider and a permit to run them. White and yellow are usually no problem.

Thanks, I ended up with amber for this very reason it’s not worth the hassle running any other colors

Here are some pics from the first day I started driving it I immediately knew the SAP chrome grille had to go

I came across someone selling one of the P71 mesh grilles on FB Marketplace so went and snagged it and threw it on

"There are 106 miles to Chicago, we have a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses." Clean looking ride.

Why would anyone object to green?
Interested in this too, I’ve seen alotta people do green and amber or green and white on the Vic pages on FB, seems to be a combo nobody really uses so you can’t get blamed for anything if someone called and complained to the cops

In October I got to spend an unplanned afternoon just ahead of a blind curve. A friend had rolled his Yukon XL just around this corner, and it was mostly blocking the road. During the time I was there I had a state park ranger, a game warden, a deputy sheriff, and a state trooper come by responding to the accident. Not one objected to what I was doing.
