That's what started me on the idea. I did my windshield as an experiment with testors model paint, and it worked out well, but the only color I could find was red. I got the amber on line

Looks good until you turn the lights on.....
Btw, can you use that Krylon Stained Glass color on the windshield? Would be a good (and cheap)way to get the red on the bottom half of a windshield.

Regards and such,

Well, part of it is a whoops, anyway. I have been looking for a set of amber fog lamps, 4.5", 12v for a while now. I used to be able to get them at the local tractor stuff store for about $3 each, but no more. They have the white ones, but no amber. I checked a local auto parts supplier, and they wanted $35 each....ahhhh, no I don't think so. I did find them on line for $17 each plus shipping, but still no cigar. I got a can of Krylon Stained Glass color (also not easy to find, at least around here) and I dyed the inside of the lights amber...came out nice, and since the color is on the inside, it won't get damaged. To go it one further, I got a set of LED H-3 bulbs....supposed to be white, but they are 9000K....the results are ...well interesting to say the least. I believe I'm going back to the halogen bulbs.
