That is along the same lines I was thinking. I have the clear lenses and like the way they look. I wouldn't mind trying, but $50 for a set of lights that may poosibly be weaker than my current stock bulbs doesn't seem like a smart bet.

I had never heard that about colored lenses, but it makes sense. I replaced the bulbs on my 900 (now my wife's 900) with LEDs and clear lenses. They work great at night, but during the day my OEM signals are much brighter.
