at night the blinkers will still be able to be seen. reverse lights should be fine, i couldnt take pics of it cuz the car is manual.

I yank the hand brake to check my reverse lights, doesnt move at all, i have AT but maybe you can do the same?

My car is MT too. Just turn the key to the position right before the ignition position. Than you can put it in rever to see the reverse lights. I found that out over the weekend, and i did that to test my JDM taillight install

its just a fix it ticket. plus my old car was just as dark for 3 years and nothing happened, even with cops on my ass, the whole taillight was tinted too, atleast with the fit only the signal and reverse light is smoked not the brake light
