rear turning lamp conversion

i wanna get the bright white turning indicators for my rear light assembly(tail lights), like the euro lights..i've seen other Tl's , i think there's a orange/amber covering that i just have to take out and put in a bright white bulb...






i just want the turing indicator to be white or the color of the bulb not the generic orance/amber hue i will get due to the small orange box that covers the bulb inside the assembly.

whatever you do, don't get LED bulb for the turn signal.
I got mine for my bike a year ago (with the load ressistor).
It blink fine for a few month and after that always blink really fast.

You cant remove teh amber in your tail light. You have to buy the 02-03 style. And white blinkers area

since you already have the 02-03 tails, you just need to get the chrome amber bulbs that people are using in their cleared headlights. they are chrome so the tail light housing will look clear during the day, but will still light up amber so you won't have any trouble with the law.
