Need help with bulbs!

Ok not often do I post here lol but I really need your help I have a '97 I need to replace ALL of the bulbs in the interior and exterior well the things is I'm not sure if I need to replace all the bulbs. Ok first of all I'm getting clears for the front bumper real soon so when I change the orange ones out do you guys think I'll need new bulbs? I want knew bulbs in my headlights preferably ones that do about 4000-5000K with a bluish tint to them and I want to clear out my tails so do you think I would need new bulbs in those also? What colors are the bulbs in them right now? I want to change the interior lighting as well the 2 bulbs on the roof and the courtesy bulbs as well. What are all the part numbers, and where can I get really good prices on them online and locally around the metropolitan NYC area? Please help! Thanks!

Use the links section on this site for the bulbs. The stock bulbs are clear. If you want to stay legal you need yellow. For the headlight bulbs you need piaa to stay legal or some cheap japan brand to save money but you would have to switch those out for inspection. There are many great sites to buy these online so check the links. Good luck.

when you clear out your rear lights take out the corner bulb. usually there's a clear bulb behind that red insert. I took out the red insert, and made the fluorescent cover go all the way around. at first i had a red bulb in the corner, but the red and yellow bulb made the colors bleed together. i took out the red bulb and it looks way better.

You don't need any bulbs, getting new bulbs is really only for cosmetic reasons. The only time you need a bulb is if one of yours goes out. As for the orange turn signal I guess it depends on where you live if it's illegal or not.
