I just noticed something (yeah, I'm *that* slow sometimes..)

You did up the insides of your visors in yellow. Was it done like that in the field? For some reason I always thought the insides (of ALL visors on signals) were flat-black. :)

The Flat Black was not a standard until the late 1960's Early 1970's, Because of the MUTCD... :crazy:
Well what do you know. If I put my name here, I do not have to sign it everytime.

This is a question I've had for sometime now. I was going to paint the insides of my visors black but wasn't sure.
Thanks for the clarification Phil.
