Default Good corner bulbs? (194/168)

I made the mistake of getting some APC bulbs for my corners, one pair blue and one pair "hyperwhite." Well, of course 6 months later they are pretty much piss yellow and poo brown respectively. :thumbup:


What kind of bulbs should I use in my corners? I have a 5G accord with "euroclear" corners, the houseings of which I will probably paint black pretty soon. What kind of bulbs are out there for an ok price ($6-10 a pair or so) Should I get some Polarg? Nokya? Help me out here.

You may want to take a look at the new LED bulbs. I was considering to get em...You can get them here, under the Light Bulbs section.

Try the Sylvania 3496.
They are halogens and they hvae the same mount as the 194/168 but are lots whiter and briter.
I use them in the clear corner lights on my prelude and it looks alot better at night.
Plus they are only about $5.00 for 2 and they are also used in the stop/turn lamps on my car!

I was looking around for the Sylvania bulbs you described above but I only found this

http://www.sylvania.com/business/halogen/bipin.htm


Of course the light may be whiter and brighter, but the watts that it uses are insane! I don't think I'd feel comfortable putting a 50watt bulb in my side marker.

Default Wrong Bulb Number.....Sorry!

That Number should have been 3652............

They are exactly the same fit except they are halogen and about 5 times brighter.

I had to rummage around in my tool box to find the package.

Try them.
