Has anyone taken out the reflectors in the bumper?

Great question! Don't recall anyone posting that kind of pic before. I'll get you one of those by Monday, too, if no one else does.

Day - light off
Day - light on
Night - light on
Some kind of weird effect going on with the headlight, but the side lamp actually looks like that.

Those are some great pics, as usual, 1Panel2NV!
Here's another view- at night, purposely lo-res...
You can see that, even though the markers are not lit fully corner-to-corner like stock, they still light up fine.

Yep, Nightshades. Removed the rear markers and painted the front markers and rear reflectors in place. I didn't post a pic of the rear reflectors lit up, but they appear to reflect 100% at night. I don't think the tint degrades those at all.

You have to get to the front markers from the wheel well. Twist out the lamp, then squeeze the clip at the top together, and push the lens out.

Here is an excellent how to thread for niteshades on the cobaltss forum.
