i will check as soon as i get home but i believe it was vip style (pretty confident in this) ,,, i was thoroughly amazed cuz it was spot on with your install, but they had a smaller diy on it. where they'res left a couple unanswered questions yours walked you through each step. they also had most of the other very popular models of cars various headlights, winkers (blinkers in japanese ), taillights, and side mirror winkers diy's as well... very popular mod amongst vip cars latley.
