Post www.streeteffectz.com ???

When is your web site going to be up?

Are you going to have a gallery of your installs?

Keep up the good work!...Your white TL is the tightest TL I have EVER SEEN!!!

What WOULD you sell it for if you did?

I would put the Mercedes Blinkers in the side mirrors...I did that on my GS4 and it is AWESOME!

Got any pics of them? I really wanted to do it for the TL, but for that much $$ i don't know if it is worth it....how much installation of the mirrors itself was required? Was it at least a similiar fit?

A bodyshop guy did it for me! Close but not an exact fit.....he had to take the blinker and about a centimeter around the blinker/light and cut my mirror and mold the 2 together!!!! BUT THE JOB HE DID IS AWESOME! I MEAN IT IS "PERFECT"! THE PAINT MATCHES PERFECT, NO LINE, NO CRACKS, NO NOTHING...I COULDN'T HAVE ASKED FOR A BETTER JOB

Only thing know is I have all the wires ran but I'm waiting on the wiring pig tail to get here...should be here Tuesday or so. I don't know why it didn't come with the housings but it doesn't!
The price, the compliments, to see that look at night is AWESOME....folks are like WHAT THE HELL, ON A LEX?

Whoa, $175 per blinker or for both? Looks phat. Maybe I'll get a set. How about the
S-Class style? The ones that go across the whole mirror, think I can get those? Thanks for th info.

The S Class has more molding/rubber in the back and that makes it not enough room for the motor/heater/mirror. Would have been a lot of trouble in the Lexus, not sure about the Acura....but the one's that I have LOOK AWESOME.....

Did you pay $175 each or for both? I am seriously considering doing this. Also, what kind of bulbs go in those blinkers? Are they LEDs or wedge bulbs? I would like to make them superwhite. They look great. Also, my girls dad just bought a S500 and his blinker is bigger than my whole mirror so forget those.

Lights are LED's....INSTANT ON AND OFF....just like the new benz's tail lights, not like a regular bulb. Bright as hell and a DEFINITE eye catcher....people are like WHOA!!!!!! Sorry it took so long to get back...I've had pictures forever!

ECLASS HOUSING/BLINKER WAS $175 EACH HAD TO GET DIRECTLY FROM DEALER

Bodywork is PERFECT...only $250 to mold/cut/paint Benz/Lexus mirror together!

Unistall/Install/Hookup $60

Hookup on all 3....$660 total!!!

WOULD LOOK AWESOME ON TL.....DON'T GET SIDE MARKERS...IT'S 2001 BABY!!! THAT'S OLD!!!
