Depending on what your state laws are, you will have to use an amber bulb. I can't recall right off hand but I want to say a 194. Walmart has the bulbs pretty cheap.

Correction, I think the bulb is a 3157.

I use the Silverstar replacements for the stock bulbs.

There is also a vendor on fleabay that sells chrome bulbs that turn amber when on. I cant remember the name. Do a search on "chrome bulbs" I think that will work. Mine look great with clear corners.

You'll need four bulbs. Two of them are 194's. I can't remember the number for the front one's. Go to the fleabay store "Custom Decals and Silver Bulbs" to see the one's I used.
