Default One of the BEST BANG for you BUCKS! Chrome Turn Signal Bulbs

I've mentioned these many times before, and really think these are one of the best bangs for you bucks. No longer will you have that amber glow when light hits your headlights, but instead a totally smooth clean look.

I bought mine for $20 a pair, but couldn't remember the name of the company bought them from. I've been told Sylvania makes them as well.

what color is the light that that bulb emits? cops around here are kinda aggressive on cars with illegal lights lately.

sorry man, if you look above I said 4000K for syvlania's. That is for the 9007 headlight bulbs, which I got confused with my other post.

I don't know what the turn signal bulbs put out, but when comparing the stock one and the chrome plated, they look identical, but don't have any hard figures for them.

The second pic has them turned on at daytime. I could run out and take one now, it wouldn't be a comparison of stock vs. chrome plated, just a picture of the chrome plated's on. Let me know.

I am getting some of thoes, why have clear corner headlight if there's still an amber bulb in there. I would like to know what color they emit also though.
