Sidemarker/turn signal bulb replacement

So i cleared my side markers today, and i love the look during the day, but with the lights on it looks like ass. Can someone tell me what bulbs to replace with to get those 2 lights on each side to match my stock HIDS? Also, where to get em, im assuming ACP.com, but i didnt know which would match my stocks. Thanks.

I was actually going to reply to you yesterday but my home laptop was not working. When you are talking about "those lights on the side" you are reffering to the ones with the pale yellow color under the turn signals right? As far as the turn signals, I suggest you replace those too. A couple companies make a bulb that is chrome on the outside but is amber when it is on which makes you look cool and you are legal at the same time . The original thread was from acura-tl.com. It is here. Below are some pictures of what it looks like.



before :


after :


Here is the package for the most part ... the only diff is you should buy the one that says "1157 Amber".

Yeah, i was talking about the pale yellow bulb and the amber bulb. Id want to change both of those to the same color, superwhite or something close to my HIDs, i dont care about being legal. I cant be the first one to do something like this???

Hmmm well I dont know about the small little bulb but I know you can get a superwhite 1157 from APC. Check your local pep boys or auto zone!

Ok, i got the 1157 Super whites and i think they're gonna work great. Now if i could find a 168/194 size of the exact bulb i would be perfect. Anyone have any ideas? All i can find is blue colored bulbs.
