front turn signals

**miller** · 07-12-2008

does anyone have different colored front turn signals (the yellow ones look kind of dorky). I went to advanced auto and all they had were replacment ones, not the silverstar blue or just straight up blue bulbs. I have been having troubles findy any different bulbs for with the code 3757. What have you guys cooked up?, do other bulbs such as 3157 work in the sockets?

realize that blue bulbs are illegal (amber is actually required by law) mine has 3057's in it (just pulled the corners)

All 3x57 bulbs will fit, the only difference is the wattage. Based on the bulb replacement guide, 3457 is actually specified.

If you're looking for something different but still legal, I'd recommend the Switchback LED's (scroll down the page). They light up white for the parking light, but the turn signal flashes amber to keep Johnny Law happy. Note that you will need a different flasher to work with LED's. You can either mod your own, or Autolumination sells a modded LED flasher (keep scrolling down from the link above).

So how can you mod your own? If I could do that would any of these work?

Yes that would be your best bet, and the link you posted doesn't have the correct bulbs.

Here's a pic of the switchback in the chrome projectors

I don't have a pic of the amber portion of the switchback because i didn't bother trying to take a pic of the blinker.

Haha I'd love to see you try to take a pic of the blinker, sitting there for hours on end lol.

Good thing about the Silverstar blue ones is, they light up amber, but reflect blue when they're not on!
