Question Clear corners question..

Hey all just bought some clear corners off ebay, but they came with no bulbs.. is it better to use the stockers or buy some from Autozone, Advance Auto etc. If so what is the part # for these? I did a search but not much came up. Thanks!

Depends on the color. If they're clear I would go buy some amber bulbs, not the stock clear ones. They won't look right. Go get the Silverstar amber bulbs. Not sure the exact title but the glass is blue and lights up amber.. Looks GREAT!

is it really THAT far to drive to the damn store and see for yourself? sorry if im coming across as rude, but come on dude...its not that hard to find out for yourself. if youre too lazy to drive there you can always search their website, they MIGHT have the typical store inventory on there.

well seen as its 9:45 and there aint no 24-hour stores yea it is kinda hard.. just trying to get a heads up, if you don't want to post anything helpful, then don't post at all.. I'd think with 683 posts you might have that concept, apparently not.

Stock bulbs are clear and the ones that usally come with them are yellow! I HATE THE YELLOW bulbs! You go from the yellow look to clear so keep the clear bulbs! Looks a million times better!

I went to Autozone and got these:

Sylvania Silverstar 3157A/4157A ST ... They are like bluish colored but light up amber .. $11.99 I think too

For the 194's I got little clear ones with orange tips..

Didn't have time to put them on today.. dark out now.. and won't have time tomorrow, maybe monday after work or something
