you know, the lights next to the headlights. Audi's and Bimmers have bright orange lights next to their headlights and it looks pretty tight in combo with xenon lights. Anybody try this? Does it look good?

I have orange bulbs in my clearance lights, and I think it looks pretty good. Although I don't have true HID lighting system.

Here is a pic: http://images.cardomain.com/installs...030_1_full.jpg

I've always liked this look as well. I think it gives the car a nice DTM look to it. I used to love the orange clearence, Philips HID's, and projector fogs (white) on my Volvo 850 Turbo.

I'll be installing my 8000k HIDs at Christmas time and I was panning on going to amber bulbs in my clearance and side marker lights if my hyperwhites don't look good next to the blue HIDs.

I'll only do it if the amber is VERY amber, unlike the color in the pic above. That light is too faded for me to switch to it.

Orange side markers here too. They make the car look mean at night. I don't know why everybody wants to match their headlights, the contrast looks hot.

Re: Anyone have orange bulbs for their clearence lights?

I have amber clearance lights as well w/ silverstar headlights. I like the look a lot, my clearance lights are brighter than the ones in that pic. I have APC bulbs in there and its about as orange as the stock corner lights. However I have 3 diff shades of orange/amber on the front of my car now, the sidemarker lights, the blinkers and the clearance lights all have a diff brightness and tint... I dont mind though cause it still looks pretty good.
