Re: Some of our Caprice in ME

Thanks for sharing, Tariq. I've spent many many hours looking up pics of Arabian WMs, but I don't think I've seen any of those pics before. I made a gallery of my own on my Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.246525262120915.45157.119732498133526&type=3" onclick="w...

Dual-colour side turn signal LED lights!

Stumbled upon this interesting product, which combines an amber side turn signal with white LEDs which I presume act as puddle lamps. A bit of installation required but interesting all the same. http://www.exledshop.com/exled-custom-leds/chevrolet/caprice/2006-chevrolet-holden-caprice-veritas-6th-ge...
