It only took Coddington 2 months to make a replacement for the one I almost lost, but it was worth the wait.

You're not too far from my hometown. Grew up in Owosso (between Flint & Lansing) before the Navy took me away. Retired here and here I stayed.

Is there a way to get the stuff off if I screw up or if I don't like it? Does it let more light through than the taillight blackouts?
