Use a stock amber 1157.

Don't try to match your Silverstars, contrasting them looks better.

i bought the PIAA bulbs from custommaxima and then did the corner rewire mod and it matches the brighter aftermarket bulbs almost perfect

I also have silverstars. I used stock sylvania amber bulbs, and it looks awesome. I also did the bumper light rewire. It makes it look much better.
Heres a pic:

Good luck!

Echohb where did you get those silverstar hyperamber bulbs. I was just at Walmart today and was looking at the Slyvania Cool blue bulbs and the Silverstars. Not sure which ones I want to get...Any advice?

they sell them at AutoZone around here. They wont have the silverstar corner bulbs at wal mart. Try your local auto stores. You can check them out on my homepage. I got them because i have HIDs, and no white corner bulb would match them. They look good together.
