you did the ace flange huh.
yeah dude i was pissed i couldn't find anything and the oem ones from other cars are too much.. 50 bucks for plastic. So after searching around the net of what other people used, i just settled with ace hardware hahah It actually turned out better than expected.


as far as diy.. no diy on this.. use your creativity acrylic rods with LEDs.

I purposely made the lights to fade down. Plus i turned down the shutter speed on the camera so i wouldn't get a glare.
