i finally remembered to take a pic of the turnsignal while the actual headlights were on, few people asked me for night pics, so here they are.
it is still very clear that the light is on, like i said earlier iw oudl say that only about 10% of the light output is lost, but i would like to get some more brighter bulbs in there just to see the differenece, so if anyone knows where to get that i would really appreciate it.
check it out

and this is what the headlights themselves look like for those who have no idea what im talking about, orange part painted silver, about 3-4 good coats on
way too big pic, lol
