I would damn near guarantee you that just by looking at that photo, they would like up greenish-white with an incandescent bulb, and blueish-white with a white LED. That's why I hate mine so much, and will be replacing them shortly.

I ended up just ponying up the money and getting the MBA ***** from WS6Store...I'll probably end up having them anodized since all they had were the satin finish *****.

If I have enough people willing to pay for it I have a machinist friend who could make them. Not sure what the cost would be though. I guess it depends on the cost of materials.

Most people are going to want a price range before they sign up for it, I know I do.

I'm sure they won't be as high as the MBA stuff but I'll try to get him to make a couple to see how they look. We'll have to find somewhere to get the billet aluminum unless somebody has some they don't need. To be honest, I'm not going to try to make a bunch of money off of it just enough to make it worth my time. I'm under the impression he's gonna use a CNC machine so it won't be very hard or labor intensive which will also keep price down.

Those look like the ones I bought a while back, but haven't quite modified to fit yet. They are aftermarket ones on AliExpress for a Mazda 6. However, on the ones I have, the peg hole is too large for our cars and the "D" shape is 180* off (so the indicator line points the opposite direction).

These are the ones I bought:
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/3PCS-...829217046.html
(The pics aren't the most accurate, the ones I received have clear plastic, not red.)
The ones I bought were $10 for 3 *****, but I've seen some more recent sets as cheep as $4 for 3 *****.

I still need to modify them to fit. Unless someone knows the exact ones that will fit with modification? They make identical ones for all sorts of cars, so maybe one of the others will work.
