1157 corner lights

So I searched and could not find anything on matching 1157 corners to headlights. I have piaa super whites as headlights. Anyone got some suggestions or pics?
Thanks

that is very hard to do no matter what you're trying to match. the problem is the coating on the bulbs. they're never going to be exact. plus your headlight is a halogen and your pathfinders (1157) are standard. IMO, use contrast. i have 8000K HID headlights with amber pathfinders:

I think amber looks the best for corner lights.

No amber is not yellow. Any corner light you get will not match the headlight. I have never seen anyone one here be able to match corner lights. Amber looks the best without a doubt. Even with PIAA super white corners, they won't match the super white headlights. Go amber.

Yeah it won't match right if you keep it on the dim circuit but because you can still see the coating. I had to get my polargs to light on the bright circuit and they matched pretty well. If you are going HID get amber or white leds because any standard hyperwhite bulb will look greenish.
