yeah, to stay legal. You can also spray them with slve paint to still have the "clear" effect or you can get blueish tinted silverstar turnsignals that when lite are amber; that is what I have...

If you buy the eBay clear corners you can use an unpainted amber bulb and its only noticible if you get right up to it and look for it.

Do the 00'* have a lamp monitor of any type? If so.. LED'* won't give you the same resistance as a regular bulb and this would ding the monitor

the bulb is just a standard 194. Leds would work but would set off the lamp monitor. You can bypass it with a resistor, but for most people, its more work than its worth. I like the blue coated bulb idea. Wouldnt it be possible to put a white turn signal bulb in? Ive seen many cars with white blinkers instead of amber.
