I think you are correct. The blacked out diamond cut backup lights should be the next step

Looking real good Michael ... actually exceptional on your MY We have your info and we'll ship your Smoked Crystal Eyes out in the morning. I'll send your tracking number at that time as well. Are you going to use your standard bulbs, or should I include the 18LED Tower Bulbs? In short, standard are brighter offering you brighter back-up lighting. However the Starwars appearance of the LEDs can't be beat So you need to determine your priority between looks or functionality.

Thanks again,
Richard
