Could you give me the product or bulb number by any chance? and did you see any bulbs that came in orange or yellow?

What do you all think would look good on a yellow car. yellow, red, or orange? I dont think blue or any other colours would suit it.

I saw orangeish ones there. i dunno about the yellow car in general. . . I dont have the part number, just pop one out and go in a match it. Its like a universal bulb, same one in your interior lamp and side marker blinkers.

They should be able to help you. But its all the same for that bulb. Just hold your bulb up to the one in the package.

Check local laws on bulb colors. Blue is definitely not legal anywhere in the US.

yeah I've been hating that LP light for the longest time. How do I turn it off? just take out the bulb? how do I do that? I haven't really looked at that part yet.
