i have had the 7440 amber led turn signals for almost a year and have no problems. i was pleasantly surprised to find out that, because of lower power consumption, they actually blink faster. i like em.

go to autodynamic.com and get the yellow 7440s, i've had htem for a long time and no problems. get yellow 168s to match for the corners, but since the corners are on all the time, they will fade more quickly.

Yea, those LED's from autodynamic suck ass, their not bright at all, just there for color, and the HID's usually just dominate it, sometimes it looks like i don't even have corner bulbs in the headlights, here's a pic

Here are the piaa ion yellow 168's in the clear corners, and autodynamic super white LED's

Also throwing this one in

as you can see, I have a serious matching problem, so I'm also looking desperately for a decent pair of yellow blinker bulbs to match my yellow ion wedges

I'm actually pretty interested in those new polarg bulbs with the metallic coating over them, but those are like 15-20 bucks a BULB, not worth it at all

Blacura, how are your turn signals? are they really bright and yellow? I want to get some turn signals that are like an ion yellow color, not amber-orangish looking. Did you get these?

the 168 piaa yellow ion's, go for around 10-20 bucks depending where you go, i got hooked up from a local car shop

hey blacura, how much was it a pair, and you think they'll match the piaa yellow's?

Klepto, yes those are the ones I got and i'm very happy with them. They're very yellow, not amber at all (i hate amber). My friend saw me coming the other way on the road with my turn signal on and he was like "holy shit your blinkers are bright!"

aznsucka, I dont have PIAA ion yellow 168s, but i have the autodynamic yellow 168s to match the turn signals. I'd be interested to see how well they match the PIAAs. I have the same corner bulbs as you (white led on top, yellow on bottom) and i really like the look, but seriously try the yellow 7440s from autodynamic, they should match pretty well, and even if they're a little off, how often are your blinkers on the same time as your corners? My corners are faded a bit, but the blinkers are on not so much so it doesn't really matter. I'm rambling...did i make any sense?
