Turn signals or whatever they are below the headlights....oh, oh, running lights..that's it. They use to be amber/orange.

Wilco. Most likely tomorrow night (or way to early tomorrow morning). It REALLY cleans up the front, in my opinion. And the "amber" (aka incandescent at a low watt burn) is a much better match for the three LEDs in the grille, than the "natural amber" of the stock bulb is.

Stay tuned. I'll probably fire up a new thread once I have the night time pics.

(Your idea is a home run in my opinion when combined with these lights. I'm totally sold. Thank you!)

Yep. You want "3157" , not "3157NA" It will be pretty obvious when you look at 'em in the package.

I paid $1.99 for the pair at my local Orchard Supply Hardware. I would assume any parts store will have 'em too?

NOTE: DO NOT get the silver coated ones. They're way too expensive (compared), and when the daylight reflects around inside the housing, the orange of the NA bulb will be replaced by a blue from the silver. You want the clear bulbs. Like this:

Here's a couple more shots:

Both bulbs replaced with the clear, lights off.


Lights on, in the daylight. Passenger side is the stock bulb, driver is the clear replacement


Lights off, in the daylight. Passenger side is the stock bulb, driver is the clear replacement

Nice Job BIGJ. Looks very good and you to BirdMan Thanks.

should I really not get the silver coated ones? my headlights have that blueish tint when off due to the Slverstars... maybe eliminate the orange and match the headlight reflection at the same time? no?

Ohh I see. Ok then yeah, why not? I was assuming you had the stock headlights, and that you'd be disappointed with the blue look down there, instead of the blank white look I'm showing in my pics.

yeah, you can see it a bit in this pic and you can imagine how much more pronounced it is during the day
