Painted my turn signal bulbs metallic silver... screw paying $90 for Invisibulbs lol. I'm assuming that you have to take the entire headlight out to get to the front corner bulb. :thumbdown So I'll probably do the fronts in the next couple days. Huge difference though, and yes they still blink the same brightness as before.

Pulsing/ vibration feel... Was there a noise and was it speed related?
At high speeds... 83+ mph I get a pulsing noise and vibration. I think it's more related to my torque converter taking a crap but, this has attention!

not realy any noise
just a wierd up and down vibration/pulse that happened @ certain speeds/engine load over 40km/hr more/less @ certain speeds

i could feel it in the steering wheel aswell when i turned left and right it would pulse/vibrate with the slightest movement
