Hey guys,

I'm getting tired of the eggy look of my front turn signals. I would just change them to a white light but I feel it'll look ridiculous with amber side and rear blinkers. I also don't really wanna go down the road of illegally making all my blinkers white.

Are there any bulbs that appear clear yet will flash amber? I know there's such things as the switchback lights, but I don't know anything about them to be honest, just that they exist.

clear bulbs that glow orange so you get a cleaner looking headlight? my uncle did this to his bmw for the side ambers and front ambers

Personally I like switchbacks. You can get them for both the parking lights and the side markers. Worth it imo

Are switchbacks just plug n' play or do you have to wire them up as well?

You need resistors for led switchbacks

I think Hyperion has more lighting experience then me. Only thing I've done that way is hids on my first Mazda lol

Switchbacks are great, I've picked some up for my gen 2. Try going to diodedynamics.com that's where I got mine, they have several options for switchbacks depending on how bright you want them. http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/04/12/0d11394f7facd7acc370541f936a9d78.jpg

Nobody does chrome dipped bulbs anymore? I have them and feel they really clean up the look of my head/tailight assemblies when the signals aren't on.

are these plug and play? how hard is it to install the resistors? any cuts to the wire do you know?
