I have amber bulbs up front with red bulbs at the rear in my clear corners. I just get them at the local auto parts places when they go out.

I'm running amber 194 LEDs in my front corners and red 194 LEDs in my rear corners and I like the crisp, vivid light that they produce.

The LEDs are not that expensive depending on which ones you buy. Prices vary from maybe $1.00 or so a bulb to a high of $20.00 per bulb. Just get the 4 or 6 LED lighted bulbs to keep the cost down.
