that makes sense. i've thought about taking mine off one night because i've seen videos of the kinda stuff that gets caught under it, i just haven't got around to it.

i'm still waiting for an answer on that one too lol

The sifter on the center counsel has 1 bulb in it, i do believe its a 194 or 168 bulb, either works. You have to take the center counsel apart to get at it and then you have to scrap the red film from inside the plastic piece to get it to show up decently. I only used 1 green led but i suggest at least 3, mines too dim.

ya my bad i guess i am in pitt ohio...ish

nice lights just think a white dome light wouyld be better green might be a bit much

lol i'm the last guy you wanna ask for directions, but i do hear those thrown around a little

i didnt even know there was a pitt, ohio ha but now that you mention it i see pitt-ohio semi trucks all over the PA turnpike, maybe a company from there?

Oh when you scraping use a flash light on the other side so you can scrap out the letters perfectly. Yeah it's that tedious!

Yeah, I'm too lazy for that. I'll just stick with red.

never used a clay bar on my ride. the idea of shaving a little off to put more on seemed counter productive.

Can you give a website to where you got the domes floor and maplights from and item name/number if possible i really wanna go blue with mine but scared ill order the wrong bulbs
