Thumbs down installed blue dots in tails...not impressed

Had sewn these on a welders rig the other day and liked the blue purple light they put out. Didnt take into account that his tails were way smaller than mine. And probably led. They were aftermarket tails installef in a welding bed.

I ordered the glass ones which are supposed to be the good ones, and installed them today.

Put them in front of the bulb like you are supposed to do..they almost don't even light up lol. They look like black spots on the lenses at night even with brakes on.

Will be ordering new lenses tomorrow...don't have time for this crap lol. My only thought is that the bulb is too far away to focus much light into the dot therefore its not the desired effect. The idea is to have most of the light concentrated thru the dot which is what makes it illlegal lol. I didn't realize how big our tails really are.

With brakes on
