DIY: front sidemarker overlays
I heard a lot of good stuff about Bluebatmobile's overlays, so I had to give it a shot. No disappoints what so ever. VERY EASY to install. Its like learning your 0 and 1 multiplication table. So easy, it only requires 4 easy and quick steps (when done with patience). So here is my quick install of some quality overlays
things needed: Bucket, sidemarkers, blowdryer, your fingers or credit card wrapped in non-scratching cloth, overlays
1) take off your front sidemarkers and clean them. Quality products derserve a quality cleaning ;)

2)Get a small bucket and fill it with warm water. Add about 3 dime size worth of soap (auto or dishwashing soap, etc).
3)Peel off the backing of the overlay and dip the whole thing in the bucket. Place the overlay on the sidemarker.

4)Position the overlay. Once you got it to your liking (centered in this case), get your blowdryer and heat up one side only. Seal that heated overlay onto the sidemarker. You need the other side "open"

5)using your fingers or credit card wrapped in cloth, push the moisture under the overlay to the "open" side. Make sure you get most/all of the moisture, depending on how good of a job you want.
6)Once you think you got the moisture out, seal that puppy up.
7)Once everything is seal up, get your sidemarker and put it back on your car. Pride yourself on a VERY easy DIY. Seems too easy uh? Well it is =)

*note: Thanks Bluebatmobile for the overlays =) You got one more happy customer. This is Teabox saying.....Peace, love, unity, respect.

Btw, don't the European auto manufacturers use amber side markers anyways?
I know all of you aren't bashing on me. No hard feelings. Opinions are ok with me.
I got amber because not everyone gets amber. Majority gets smoked. Plus, I want a "jdm"/"honda" inspired look =) . But yea, I just want to show support for Bluebatmobile on his quality products and how easy it is to put them on. :D That was point of this thread.
