My SSR: Ricochet Silver built 11-8-04, #17696. K&N, headers, Flowmaster,Trifecta Tuned, Phoenixed Tranny
there was silver coating behind the red so lights wouldnt work
i would have to completely change the red to red lens that was cutable, then put in leds and then put a back on it.

Looks great the way it is but it is nice for the rest of us to know about the back and light issue. Thanks.

Reason: correct typo
Another option is to put Scotch 3M reflective tape behind the red lens. I have used the silver for a similar application. When lights hit it it looks like it is lit up. Cheap and no wiring or drilling involved.
3-M makes a bunch of other colors too.
I posted a link to a site that showed a bunch of chevy chrome script you could choose from, but it got removed, so you're on your own.
