Yup, boil for 30 min, then let cool. Add a touch of salt or favorite seasoning and enjoy!

Actually I have no clue. :?

The turn signal bulbs closest to the grill I changed out with a clear bulb. I was hoping to get a yellow lit bulb but I'm happy with the ones I have.

No, there was another thread recently about that. They're chrome when they're off; color shows through when they're on. I had a URL for the whole selection but now I can't find it... Some ransacking of the archives should turn it up.
