Amber DRL

I want to know if any one has found a bulb for the DRL's that makes a real dark amber tone. Ive been running GE bulbs for a while but, they're not being produced with the same tint anymore.

They take a couple minutes to warm up but, when they're warm they look better then any bulb I've seen.

Typically "NA" bulbs have a better/more-consistant/longer-lasting amber color than "A" bulbs.

"NA" = Natural Amber (the glass itself is amber)
"A" = Clear glass with amber tint
