Default ATTN. Bulb experts....

OK, I have a 98 Accord EX and I have the all clear headlights. For my turn signals I have 1157 Piaa Extreme whites but they're not really white and the bulb is blue, which I hate. Does anyone know of a bulb that will give out a nice bright white light without the color of the glass being blue. My reason for this is I hate the way you colud see the blue bulb through my lens. Sorry if I sound like an idiot. Much thanks in advance!!

If you are looking for a turn signal bulb, get an LED white or blue.
check out www.superbrightleds.com and see if they have the bulb you are lookin for.

Here is mine BTW, its a chrome bulb I bought from Autozone. looks blue when idle but its bright white when I use the turn signal not ricery at all.

Try Here
for these:

as for the superbrightled.com lights, i have some but they are 3157's i used to run all HID or led's on my truck. the only filament bulbs left were the high beams, and some of the dash bulbs. HID Low, Fog, LED turns and markers. The only down side is that you have to use resistors for the turn signa.

I messed around with "superwhite" signal bulbs for a while...went back to amber bulbs and I just think it looks better.

Mine:

Try these if you want amber(or their mirror equivilant)

Or you can do what i did and get ION Yellow for the turn signals.

Trust me, the ion yellow looks prety good.easier to find for 1156, very hard to find for 7440, but didn't used to be that way. it took me a long time to find mine this time around, had to go to good ole ebay.

Sup guys,

I have been browsing through this forum and still can find all of the numbers for all of light bulbs for 05 Accord sedan. The manual only give the Volts and watts. That's only half of what I'm looking for. Any chance if any of you would know all of the numbers for all of the bulbs? So for, I got the signal light which is 1156. Any help would be great. Thanks
