bulbs for clear corners

hey guys, i upgraded all my bulbs this weekend to hyperwhites (lows, highs, parking, marker, and turn signal) and everything matches except the turn signals. the wedge bulbs i have for the parking and marker lights are APC superwhites and so are the turn signals (7440 superwhite) but the turn signals look a lot bluer than everything else. What bulbs do you guys have in there (if you have clears). CLXTREME has a nice matching setup, if you see this plz tell me what you have. thanks

first of all APC lights sucks I just got them cuz the one I had didn't last and there is nothing you can do about it. The 7440 are always gonna look bluer cuz they have a higher output. I don't like the APC lights that I have now. The one I had looked a lot better and a lot brighter but they weren't the right size. I don't remember the size nor the brand name..(that sucks, I wanted to get them again) so I guess I can't help you...I think Im gonna go for PIAA lights this time cuz most of the people that I've seen that has them say they are good and I've seen them and they are really bright, so , Im gonna give it a try later on.....Sorry I can't help you. By the way, my head lights are purple tinted and the others were blue tinted, although you couldn't tell from the front you could see the difference from the side.

hey extreme cl,

when you rewired your bumper lights(switched turn signal with corner lights) did the turn signals blink faster? Like when one of your bulbs goes out....

Go with Polarg. The best lights for brightness as well as color. Expensive but definatly worth it.

thanks for the help so far.

Tell me hwat you guys think of this (I got this idea from the guy with the white CL with LED mirrors):

The Lexus look (xenon up top and yellow, not amber, on the bottom)

the problem with taht is i can't seem to find yellow 7440's, i think i might have seen yellow wedge bulbs somewhere but i forget.

thanks dust! I haven't told you yet that your car looks really tight. You think that color scheme would look ok?

Thanks!

Yeah, I think they would look great! I'm pretty sure that NOMAD has the yellow 7440s.
