I went through nats without anyone saying anything to me, but I was never officially impounded.
exactly - when you do get impounded it will be an issue. Easy to change before next Sept.

I'm pretty sure the rule was written for the recessed headlights (i.e. Fox body and 3rd gens), but could be used against turn signals too, based on it's wording/definition of "recessed lights".
The bolded item was added specifically because of flush covered turn signal holes, and headlight covers, about 7-8yrs ago after an incident at Ca Speedway.
