Default Front turn signal bulb swap?

Anyone done it?

I'd like to change them out with bright white light because I recently tinted my headlight and yellow bulbs are too dimm and i think it'll go really well with my HIDs too.

I'd like to see some pictures and want to know how hard is it to change them.
Also what size bulb?

Thank you!

Here's the bulb I was going to replace mine with... But it says I need a resistor kit. Anyone know what that is?

Since LEDs require so little power to turn on, they need a resister to limit the current so it doesn't constantly glow. You may have heard of people who have done the LEDs in the dome/map lights that they still faintly glow, the resistor eliminates this.

to get to that all u have to do is either take out the 7mm bolt on the fender then pull the corner of the bumper out to move the fender liner out to see the turn signal

another way is go from the bottom of the car and loosen up 4 9mm bolt up front, 2 on left and right then 3 in the middle to take out the bottom cover piece, then reach your hand up for it
