It's a good thing they hide during the day! They're not bad.... I just don't think they look good. I think the stock design could use a little improvement too, I just haven't figured out how.

Really not a bad change from the 4 bulging bug eyes. One sort of gets tired of 15 continious years of round ones....

But saved by the 83`s...
