Default Question about switchback lights

Ok, so I just went through my third DRL on the front right. Took a look at the housing and there is a hole burned through the top that is letting water in. I could replace with OEM lenses but where is the fun in that No, I had to upgrade to clear corners and I would like to go with switchback lights while I am at it. I have found switchback lights for the DRL sockets but does anyone know if they make them for the section of the lenses that are normally amber(think where 194 bulbs go)? If not, does anyone know if white lights in that location would be legal in PA?

You can get a 194NA that would be amber.. or you should be able to get yellow LED 194's if you want the LED look..

I went with amber LEDs. Makes sense since all my lights are LEDs. You will get hyper flash with the switchbacks if you don't already have a flasher bypass harness or other flasher mod for LEDs.
