Did this today. I'll write a how-to on it soon. I decided to do it today because I realized there is already a cut-out pattern in the unused housing that can be used.

I need your help though, can anyone tell me what this housing is used for in Europe?

Well whatever that empty space is....we ain't got crap there. I was taking note to what my turn signals looked like and all, and I noticed that the white circles only come on when you put it in reverse....when turning left or right it just blinks a red circle. And when you hit your hazards they blink red circles, I think i'm going to have to change them all around...maybe make the reverse my turn signal and hazards...for some reason I don't like red rear turn signals, it doesn't seem to get peoples attention right away.

I finished my modding last night, and I'm going to write a how-to. I posted on the UK forum and got a very nice answer to my question, here is the differences:

Big Red Circle at the top:
UK: Running/Brake Light
US: Turn Signal/Hazard

Tiny Red Square beside reverse light:
UK: Turn Signal/Hazard
US: Blocked out

Red Line at the bottom:
UK: Fog Lights (lights up bright when fog lights are turned on)
US: Running/Brake Light

So far I've changed mine around the UK/Japan Specs and I enjoy it.

Again I'll post up the How-To when I get a chance.

Well it looks yellow in the picture but its red in real life. That little square is my turnsignal now and doesn't light up with my running or brake lights.
