well the turn signal will still be yellow because of the amber in the headlight correct?

Not sure about other states, but in Texas, the front signals can be white or amber in the front, and amber or red in back.

i got these chrome turn signals (hyper white), waste of money.... very disappointing since our turn signals have 2 modes (one always one, other for signalin) ..

i wish they had LED ones... this guy got some for my old car.... it looked really and was super bright! *sigh* ... maybe they have some for the TL's (dual mode LED ones)

Another side question...Is there a way to turn off the upper 1157 signals when the first parking light setting is set on? Leaving just the parking lights on and the signals flashing only when signaling instead of the signals being on all the time.

go with LEDs and never look back. They are much more "white" than any filament bulb. See my avatar

I'd check out Autolumination if I was going to get led turn signals.

Whichever bulbs you get, make sure you get SIDE FIRING bulbs like this:



If you get forward firing ones they will not bounce light off the reflector and they will look very dim. I'm not sure what size the turn signals are for the 03 but my 01 took 1157. I know the 03 also has some 194 sized bulbs underneath the turnsignals that can be changed as well

Trust me your diffuser wont do anything at all to the white LED. We tried the super white LEDs i just posted and at night you couldnt even see the diffuser.... I took them off though, i'm still waiting for the super amber LEDs like the ones i posted

The easiest solution to make your bulbs hyper white is to add APC Super Hyper White blinker fluid. The dealer recommends you change blinker fluid every 30k miles anyways so this will help out.
