Default Changing turn signals

I want to install Recon's LED turn signals on both fenders and front. Has anyone done the fenders? This looks like a big pain in the a$$!

Just looked them up. Added the front and fender to my mod wish list. They look very nice. Not too bad on the price either.

Cheers!

I just ordered the front and fender clear/Amber LED turn signals. The front doesnt look too bad, but the fenders look like a pain! The smoked are nice, I have all white so I think the clear will blend nice!


I have alot of lights to install this week!!

I returned the recon front turn signals because they didn't fit my 12' rubicon? What someone needs to make is just a tinted platic blackout cover, to hide these hideous orange turn signals!

I just received my Recon Turn Signals in the mail today and found out they don't fit the my 2011 Sahara Unlimited. Think they could advertise differently instead of saying they fit up to 2011. Guess I will be getting a box to ship them back in such a pain that I've got to spend extra money for their mistake. If you happen to find a tinted plastic covering for the orange let me know would love to see the orange go away.

When I called and told them, they were very surprised to hear they didn't fit my 12'. They really didn't believe me!

The angle of the lens was off and it wouldn't fit in the grill right?

Picture shows how it looks, what was problem on yours?

Get the stealth bulbs. They are chrome so it doesn't show orange until lit.
