front turn signals

hello i was wondering if anyone knew if i change my fron tturn signal bulb to a hyper white or blue whatever... will it come out blue or white with that that orange part in the way?

will the orange part conflict the color of the turn signal?

That orange reflector has nothing to do with your turn signal. The signal is the bulb above the refector and no it will not effect it. i wouldn't bother changing that little bulb unless you clear your corners.

When I said don't bother changing the smaller bulb I was referring to the one behind the orange reflector. Unless you take that reflector out there is no point in changing it since no matter what you do the orange is in the way.

If you change the blinker bulb you'll be fine. The blinker doesn't interfere with the smaller bulb at all. They are infact totally separate. You can trust me on this b/c I changed my blinker bulb.

sorry for the confusion. i thought you meant asomething eles.

oh yea also i just bought a set a m22 polarg bulbs for my rear turn signals, and they dont ****ing fit!

the bulb is exactly the same and everything but the two little locking mecanisms on the bulb are not positioned right.
for example on the stock bulb the locking mechanisms are positioned not straight, but like a slightly lower.
on the plolarg is is poitioned straight making it impossible to fir in the socket.

damn is there anyone out there with replacements for thier turn signals? for a 2003 tls?

can you tell me which bulbs they are?

for the front the stockers and the polarg are positioned straight.
wtf?
