Granted it is cheap (just your labor time), and from a distance it looks decent....
...but up close you can see the "slits" where the orange reflector tabs were inserted. Also, there is a square "channel" where the output from the corner light used to go to light up the side reflector. Once the reflector is gone, you see this channel and the orange bulb.
The Euro's on the other hand, have a shield over the bulb so it's not visible from the side.

I think if you have us one piece euros are a waste of money. Sure euro clears look better then DIY
clears. but for $500 I bet you and the other car enthusists on this board are the only ones who will notice the difference.
