Default Clear Front Signal and Rear Side Marker Lenses - Bulbs




I was thinking about replacing the amber front signal lense with a clear lense and replacing the red rear side marker lense with a clear one. I think the "clear look" suits a black car.

I'm having a problem finding bulbs for the clear lenses. I've purchased Sylvania Silverstar bulbs for my headlights and fog lights so I looked to Sylvania for a signal light bulb that is amber. They have a signal light bulb for the car, but it's clear. The bulb needed is a 3157 - Amber. With a clear rear side marker lense, I'd need a red bulb - or some other color. Ford calls this bulb a W5W and Sylvania call it a 2825. Trouble is, they only have clear.

Has anyone out there solved the colored bulb problem for their clear lenses?

Thanks in advance.

I've searched and searched (eBay), and have yet to find a chrome/red bulb in the size we'd need for that side rear light. Good luck though!

Steeda has them in their catalog.
Red tool dip takes care of the red W5W.

Advance Auto and AutoZone sell the red side-marker bulbs and the Silver-when-off/Amber-when-illuminated Silverstar corner bulbs. Don't waste your money ordering them online, you can simply pick them up from your local parts store.
