need bright corner lights

My corner lights bulbs blew and I need to replace them. I was hoping that I could find something that was much brighter than the old were. They were an ugly amber color. I want something that's very white and looks good side the headlight. Is there any good bulbs that you guys would recommend to use. I just bought a pair of apc blue bulbs and they are weak and have a really purplish tint to them. I'm going to take them back and get whatever you guys prescribe.

Re: need bright corner lights

i've gone through a lot of hell with my stupid corner light bulbs. i started with LED's, they were good until they burnt out.. and thats not fun since they are pretty much the most expensive option. i eventually just went with some 'normal style' bulbs that look blue when not lit, but shine white/very slightly blue. just dont go really blue. you get popo attention in a hurry.

Re: need bright corner lights

if you really want that look, it'll be easier to get the corner lights you want and try to match the headlights to that.

Re: need bright corner lights

turn signals are suppose to be amber when lit. anything other is illegal, and blue is even more illegal than white. have fun getting pulled over dude.

I'm not talking about the turn signals. It's the bulbs beside the turn signal's. The driving lights

hmm...in CA I know that front coner lights can be clear (I've got some clear bumpers)...as long as they project a flashing white or amber light in the front, red or amber in the back. Look it up on the CA dmv website..too lazy to link.

Re: need bright corner lights

i did a light base swap with mine, i took the inside clear corner light wires and ran them to the bumper light so they are my new parking lights, then i took the outside corner light and the original bumper light wires and swaped positions and hooked them up so the 2 corner lights blink back and forth but the bumper light stays on when the parking lights are on like foglights. Looks good and different then other civics and crx's.

Yeah, the ones besides the headlights. The driving lights. Not the bumper turn signals.

I had trouble finding bulbs white enough to match my headlights, Nothing came close enough for my eyes. I finally decided to make both bulbs orange,
