New mods for 2006 for the NB...

Installed the clear third brake light and the clear tails tonight. Took roughly two hours, and wasn't too hard to manage. I will have to pull them out again however, as the seal didn't quite sitt right on both of them up the top and I was running out of light, which is no biggie as I have to buy some chrome orange globes and a couple of other things anyway. After the 105,000km service today, all is cruising... Apart from the fact it is filthy! So don't look too close!!

Your bugs looking great!

Are you going to change the red fog light too?

looks hot jim, loving these NBs more and more
best set of clear tails ive seen so far

I can buy more and sell them at a profit if you like!!

Nah, they can be found on eBay, and are easy enough to put in, but shipping is expensive, and the whole thing cost me $98US to my door. Thats just the centre one..

nah im so lazy when it comes to ebay...i dont have a clue...i think thats my problem:o:lol:

So now the foggy Jimbo...come on, be a conformist, you know you have to :kiss

Yeah might have to I guess.. Although the red/clear contrast blends well with the red of the tails, but still only temporary.. priority was those two and the centre..

Not too rice-ish is it?

Will have to see em in person man. these pics look better than the mms, can actually see the centre brake light.
