I use PIAA super whites in all my corners, and license plate lights. They're bright as hell. See my avatar for pic. Top and bottom are super whites.

I had the same problem and just replaced em with amber bulbs. Saves the hassle of tryin to match the color of the Silverstars.

They're silvania's right now. I had nokya's, but couldn't pass inspection with them. And the guy that did my inspection broke my nokyas so I couldn't put them back in. So rather than buy another set, I left my silvanias in, cuz I'm going HID and hopefully projectors over the winter.

yes once you go "HID's" you will never go back to regular bulbs ever again!
