Right or wrong, I found these, so my bases are covered.

Finally got mine. I am European and have need of Amber indicators so I am really very happy from those lamps. The only mod I did I smoked white clear panels to fit my black rear.
Cops you can kiss me for non amber indicators now

I used Smoked Vinyl Foil that is normally used for Tail Lights 'smoking' effect.
Was a bit problematic as the clear panels are partly depressed but with a sharp knife and a bit manual skills I manage to make it quite well.
I put square part on the top to cover whole clear panel with a little margin on red as well then cut with sharp knife two lines just on the edge of depressed part and using soft microfibre cloth push it to stick inside. Then with knife I went around the white panel line, (with about 1mm on red) to cut of margin and get nice oval shape.
When you will look close you will see that the walls of depressed part are still clear. But you really have to look from about 10 inches to see it.
Hope you understand.

Looks great and this worked out perfect for you! If I was not so hung up on sequential turn signals I would do the amber ones.

Then the signal for stop is going from the brake pedal and the power directly from battery everything is going to the microraley – the same like for example in mezzire water pomp, which gives power to the rear stops when I press brake pedal.
Now amber indicators the same: power goes directly from battery and signal comes from front indicators (can be taken from SJB internal car computer as well) to microraley. Left and right signal separately of course.
Then I bought additional sockets

and with amber 18w bulb I assembled them in spear white cell of that new rear tail lamps.

I have the same wire harness but rebuilt a bit. Original US indicators with brakes are cut off.

Man, you're way better with wiring than I am. Too much work. I'll settle for my crappy red blinking ones.

This is the same power bulb that is used in 3rd brake light and our reverse light but amber color of course.

Sorry maybe my English in not perfect so it sounds complicated. Generally the key are micro raleys. You can not get power from SJB as you will burn it you can not take power from 3rd brake line as you will burn SJB with too much power consumption etc. So you take power directly from battery and then only signal from whatever you want and run through that simple microraley switch that’s it.

Honestly, I rather have this than the 2010 style tail lights. Just my .02 cents.
