Classic Crystal light bulb Q....
A quick question.
I've recently moved from the frosted lenses to a full crystal light pack.
My query is the side lights are standard yellow bulbs where as the headlights came with a (ice??) white bulbs. I simply wish to know whether I can get either the side light bulbs (yellow) to match the headlights (white) or match them the oother way round. I dislike the mismatched bulbs.
A simple query I think but can it be done? I've been told that this can't but over to you.

Please, please, please do NOT be tempted to buy cheap silvered bulbs for the sidelights. The ones I took out, stamped on and threw away, produced a horrible, weak yellow light.

You can just use some #921 bulbs (They might have a different number in Europe.)
Here's a standard amber #194 (W5W in Europe)
This is a #194 clear
And this is the #921. They match the stock headlights quite nicely.
However, I have since installed HID's, so they don't match too well anymore. I need to get some LED bulbs.
