Cool Can i swap my orange turn signal bulbs!??!?!?!??!?!?!?

i recently got cleared headlights, but the turn signal bulbs are still orange. its annoying me. Please tell me somone sells white or blue colored turn signal bulbs for a 2000 TLP.

if they do can someone link me a website or brand/part # to buy em. not really concerned if they are illegal, cops in my area could give a bottle full of monkey piss about cleared turn signal bulbs, besides, most cars with stock HIDs dont have orange turn signal bulbs....

Bro if you want a clean look I would go with a chromed bulb. http://www.cardomain.com/item/PILXC1157W (this also comes in amber if you change your mind) They look much better than a blue bulb

ehh those got kind of bad reviews on cardomain? i like how they have a blueish tint though. i kinda want the raybrigs because it says they are 4100k and match stock HIDs the best, and our TLs have 4300k so its a pretty close match IMO. are the TL stcok HIDs more of a hyper or ultra white...thats my main dispute

About the reveiws, I don't know too much about this particular bulb (white) because I have the amber ones which look great. Good luck on your search

yeah you should just go to autozone i got my hyper white's For 5 bucks they look sick but beside's that i dont understand how you guy's like amber i hate amber and gold i got rid of it all it's just ugly but if you really like amber and not becuz it's legal i would go with the amber with chrome coat and if you change the taillights Go with piaa Hyperwhite Cuz you can see them in the Day really Good as for other hyper whites i just don want to see any acuras get hurt and if you want to keep it legal go with Red Taillights Bulbs with Chrome Coat which might be hard to find but ther out there

alrite installed them and drove around a bit at night....both bad and good reactions

first of all....i LOVE the color. its a white with a nice blue tint, matches the dark blue of my car almost perfectly. the color is very very sexy.

the bad part is that the stock HIDs are a whitish yellowish tiny purple tint, so it doesnt match that much. it looks dope, but i geuss i need something much more whiter. i wish i could make the HIDs the color of the side blinkers now.....ill try and post some pictures.

so long story short, the color is very sexy but doesnt match perfectly, but it still looks MUCH better than the orange
