Bad 00 SS

for clear cornors in order to keep the temp. down so there is no leaking or melting, or whatever the hell is up with these!!!!!!!!! and a part # would help...I thought about just going to pep boys or something...PLEASE help...the clears are going on soon and I really don't feel like buying another set!!!

The part number is the same as regular bulbs.
But for reference...
3157 is the larger turn signal bulb.
194 is the marking light bulb.

Octane: which bulbs are u running, have u added a bead of silicon, do ur bulbs leak?

Exactly what he said. The amber color is best in my opinion. The LED's will not be as bright as the sock bulbs, but as a result the housing on your clear corners will NOT melt. This is the only way to go if you want to avoid leaking.

No, no silicon, and no leaking problems.

Bought all my bulbs on Ebay... all are hyperwhite.
I'm runnin some cheapo generic 12-LED 3157s and they're dead already.
New 19-LED 3157s are on the way.
For the 194s... got some regular bulbs in there now, soon to be replaced by 6-LED bulbs.
I don't know any of the brand names... I suppose they're all generic.

Also on the way are clear side markers and red 4-LED bulbs for those.

What can I say, I like LEDs.

The EL12 Flasher piece is needed to be replaced also right?

Yes, that is correct. I should've mentioned that.
Gotta switch to the electronic flashers in order for the LEDs to blink with the turn signals and hazards. 2 flashers needed, $7.99 each at AutoZone.

Don't they make an LED Bulb now that fires Around the sides as well as straight on? I assume otherwise you still have a problem with them looking like a Bright DOT thru the lens if using them in your taillights, etc.

Yeah, there is those somewhere, but I dunno where to get them.
I've heard that they're like $50 a pair though. But they would make a difference in the front turn signals since now the LEDs point down, and you can't hardly see it at all during the day.
I don't have LEDs in my tail lights.... YET!
