Which bulbs would be best when clearing the corners..? I bought 2 sets of Sylvania Silverstars(to replace the ones under the amber and the other set one spot inward), they look nifty and i assume costing double the others theyre good. Any thoughts/suggestions?

Sorry, I really don't understand which bulbs you replaced
High beams, low beams, t/s?

sorry.. im an idiot.. im clearing the corners on thurs(keeps getting pushed back -_-) so the bulbs that are normally under the amber lens are getting the amber silverstars, then the amber bulbs right beside them are getting replaced too because the amber stuff is peeling off. i hope that sounds better
i should say the signal lights heh... that makes it a bit clearer

Well the bulbs under the ambers, I don't know if Silver star are ava in the 194 "peanut" blubs, but the t/s bulbs are worth the money.
I just bought the reg sylvania 194 amber LL blubs. I was buying the Eurolites ambers but they sucked so bad, the paint kept burning off turning the bulb white.
The Sylvainas have yet to turn white, and it's been about 3 years now :cool:

I got LEDs, they work great. clear when off, amber when on. If you go the LED route, get the ones that point on the sides as well as stright out. basically point in all directions.
