Elaborate? We have side reflectors and we have the parking/turns in front, we also have "City Lights" in with the lowe beams as well...
To change the side reflector you have to modify the reflector itself to clear or to tint it like I have...
I suggest changing the front turn signal bulbs to chrome coated pilot bulbs from cardomain.com, which light up yellow, but look chrome when turned off.... really cleans up the look
The front "City Light" bulbs (the little bulb in with the low beam) can be switched out to hyperwhite LED's, which are nice.... I disabled mine and now run the Daylight Demon Eyes from Umnitza instead.... which looks great, but is tough to install...
let me know more what you are talking about....

The lights that are on the side mirrors...i want to change those bulbs. Is it possible to change the bulb, or do I only change the reflector. What did you tint the reflector to? I am clueless when it comes to car mods, sorry...

Here's a pic of my tinted reflector....

And here's a link to a thread talking about how hard it is to change out the LED's in the mirrors (They are hard soldiered in) you'd have to have them professionally changed and probably sent out to do it)

When I had them apart for the Umnitza DDE install, I took the opportunity for 3 layers of Nightshades and 2 clearcoats... applied correctly with sanding and the like... Since It's behind plastic and small, it turned out pretty nice.... but I wouldn't suggest doing your tails with Nightshades, as it's pretty tough to get the layers even on both and a good tint.... I also took the stock bulbs out, so they don't light up anymore. The DDE rings are visable from the sides for safety's sake.
The vinyls are a good option for those who are shy about baking the headlights open and look ok.... I just like everything to be clean, so I went the extra mile for them.
