Clear Lense Bulbs

I just bought clear under-bumper lenses for my CL. Only problem is that I can't find the stock 7440 bulb in AMBER.

Anyone know where I could find this wedge-style bulb in AMBER? No luck at the local shops...

Just a friendly warning...

If you buy the amber bulbs that are 'optiblue' brand, they are pretty cheap in more ways than one. I bought a set of yellow 7440, its been about 2 months now and I see a dark purplish black film developing on the bulb glass. I have a feeling the bulbs gonna pop soon.

You should get the Polarg M-5 amber bulb, if that is the color you are looking for. You can get them at www.cartoys.com.

My OptiBlue yellows have been on for about 8 months and they look fine.

Mines are on constantly when I turn on the lights.
I rewired them so that the big 7440 bulb stays on and the smaller side wedge bulb is now my turn signal(Lexus GS/IS look).


I think it would probably be fine if the 7440 was used intermitently as a turn signal, but thats not the case for me.

I believe the 7440 bulb from polarg is the M1
