Thumbs up Just installed Back housed with Switchbacks!

I recently Just bought Black housed headlights and decided to go with the LED Switchback turn signals. In the act of doing that I decided to tint the orange reflector on the side as well. I absolutely love them! Especially cause the switchbacks are the same color as my 10k HID's that I have in high beam, low beam, and fogs! What ya all think??

Switchbacks are LED bulbs that replace the blinker bulb in the headlight. While the lights are on as parking lights, they light up white. When the blinker is used, they switch from white to amber to white to amber and so on while blinking.
