what bulbs do you use on your corners?

I'm usuing some eurolite bulbs, they're "hyperwhite" but they look like crap now. they almost match my stock halogen colors!

what do you guys use? and pics if possible, I'm gonna add some FAQ stuff to my site again.

Regarding corner lights, I've seen cars with blue bulbs in their clear corner instead of the stock orange. I was wonering if anybody knew where I could get some for my max clear corners and how much they cost. Preferably hiperblue bulbs.

if u have a performance shop near u, im sure they carry them, discount auto parts carries apc stuff now(atleast where i live) or you could get them off the internet somewhere, im not familiar with any site, just go polarg...they are worth it

they're 194s for the sidemarker, 1157 for the cornering bulb. 10$ for two 194s, and 5$ ea for 1157. use the search function next time.

I have the eurolites in my corners and they seem fine, but maybe I have just gotten used to them There was a thread about using 168s in the gauges because they were brighter. do you think they would have the same effect in the corners? I also use the Eurolite 1157 and I have them double wired. (they only last a couple months that way ) and along with my APC 9004s the color matches all the way around.

I had polarg 1157 in my corners but they were too blue for my PIAA Platinum SuperWhites 9004's and H3's. I switched to PIAA 1157's, but they are still too blue, they match better then the polargs, but not perfect. This pic is with polarg 1157's and stock 168's, now I have PIAA 168's too and they match better, but it still looks like I have a few different brands of bulbs.

i have APC 1157s and on wednesday i'm getting matching 80w/100w headlights. after that, i'm taking my guage cluster out again to replace my autozone 194B with eurolite or polarG blue 168/194 whatever.
i'll also do the same to the sidemarkers.
now, what i really want are blue licence plate bulbs. any idea what size these things are?
