dont waste time with piaa as they are over price are look just all generic bulbs, polarg i like they last and they have those silver ones that blink hyper white......eurolight led bulbs are great...but kinda directional but they match well if you dont mind a hot spot, phillips havent really seen these suckers look like they probably just be oem replacements or other legal stuff which is not gonna help look like hids....my opinion go with polarg cheap and nice closest match too

well i never really go buy their number as its pretty useless just go in ask for a 1157 dual filment twist socket type, they come in just hyper blue, and i think the silver ones you askin for is called the visual polarg, you cant miss it it has its crazy packaging for just its 1 bulb, and its has like a silver gold look to it.. if the store carrys polarg then should know what you need...so just go in and ask..it wont be like pepboys or anything...

Well, I went to check the silver bulbs at the local store here and the cost is insane. It cost $25 CAD + tax for one.

I do have the M12s in the front right now, but they are slowly turning brown. I'm thinking of the Polarg Visual, but they are just too expensive.

The front signal is 1157 (dual filament). The wedge one is 168.
