        When I indicate the 27 watt element lights up which is very visible
- the tail light element is 8 watt.
I like the Orange indicator lens too but it is not legal to have it lit up
for a tail light.   I think having both upper and lower red sections as tail
lights is more visible for night time driving.

So what happens when you indicate?  The top light gets a bit brighter?  I
find that style of indicator very dangerous as its barely visible.  It's not
legal in the rest of the world which is why you only find it on American
cars.  I changed to the british style orange lenses for the indicators.   It
doesn't look as nice as all red tail lights but I just think indicators
should be orange!
