Lightbulb 1157 Turn Signals

Ok ok I'll admit it...those :ar15: crappy blue bulbed hyper whites in my 1157 slots are looking cheesy now. A few threads back I saw someone who had the chrome/silver hyperwhites and I was wondering where to buy those. The look much more clean.

Thanks In Advance

I bought the APC Titan (yes the chrome ones) 1157 Superwhite bulbs. I don't know what the hell is wrong with APC but they were just yellow, not anywhere close to SUPERWHITE. So I switched back to my Eaglite 1157, which atleast with my HID warmed up, looks similar when blinking. Save your money.

Don't get the XC Xenon bulbs ... they suck! after 4 days of having them installed, they amber faded and turned to a pale yellow. I saw some amber LED's at autozone that I'll probably try out. Anyone use amber LED's for corners yet?

Yeah that seems to happen to all of them, fade. I tried the APC amber bulbs and I still use them now. They faded in a few days but they are still kinda amber but definitely lighter than the APC amber chromes, those seem really deep dark amber.
