More info on the roundvision?
I was thinking of doing the pdc retrofit, however that seems even better (great for trailer pulling as well!)

Quote:
the rear roundel had to be secured with a double tape, as the OE roundel had that sticky foamy tape and the replacement did not.. I actually got a double sided "mending" tape from a sewing section of the local Wal-Mart - very interesting tape, i must say... i probably will use for some other things as well... |
