Toynut Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 I found some Philips Crystal Vision 1157NA bulbs to use in my clear turn signal housings. I am still looking for the same mirrored, yet still amber light bulbs, in an 1156NA configuration, for the rear turn signals. Anyone carrying such a bulb (or simular mirrored)?

Obby Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 I'm using Sylvania Silver Star 2057A. I think they look great and are street legal too. I got'm at PepBoys for $20 . Linky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toynut Posted June 22, 2006 Author Share Posted June 22, 2006 Thanks Obby, Those bulbs work fine for the front mirror-mounted lenses. The rear signal housing uses a 1156A(or NA) configuration, which is not interchangeable (1156 have even retention pins, 1157/use a staggered retention pin). The rears are what I currently need. BTW, a pair of Philips Crystal Vision 1157NA/2057NA costs under $10.00 retail at Meijers (Michigan retail store chain). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linky Has anyone used those silver stars for their headlight replacement, and if so, did they make a noticeable difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Has anyone used those silver stars for their headlight replacement, and if so, did they make a noticeable difference? I've been running SilverStar headlights for years; they are a lot brighter (noticably) than the stock-type headlight bulb. I also run them in my four wheel vehicles.

I didn't notice you needed rears. Can't help you there off the top of my head. I like the stockers personally in the rear . I hope that didn't come out wrong HERE !

Toynut Posted June 24, 2006 Author Share Posted June 24, 2006 Thanks for the info, guys. I'm sort of surprised that no one has asked about the chrome plated bulbs before. :icon_think: They are anessential component to complete the look you are trying to achieve by going the clear lens route.

I sell alot of the Clear lenses and most people buy them when they order the lenses to "complete the look" as you said. Clear Alternatives has all the different bulbs in chrome.
