Default where do i get an orange orange brown resistor for the halo's?

i need the same resistor color as in the "changing the color of your halo headlights" write up... orange orange brown... a 330ohm 1/2watt 20% resistor that i cannot find anywhere..... my question is where the hell do i get these resistors from?.. anybody have a clue??? ive tried ebay, google, and bing and come up short.. all i can find is the orange orange brown gold which is a 5% resistor and i need a 20%.. please help!

"The 3rd color band indicates the multiplier or in other words the number of zeros. The fourth band indicates the tolerance of the resistor +/- 20%, 10% or 5%"

The 20% is a less accurate resistor then a 5% resistor. A gold banded resistor of the same value as one with no 4th band should work the same.

A 330 ohm +- 20% resistor could range anywhere from 264 ohms to 396 ohms

A 330 ohm +- 5% resistor could range from 313 ohms to 346 ohms.
