I have both front and rear side clears from autodynamic. I have the exact same bulb in them but the colors do not match. The front clears have a blueish tint to them and the rears are just a plain white color. I've read that the fronts have a reflective back so it may give a light more accurate of the bulb color itself. I've tried different combinations of bubs trying to match the colors but have had no luck. Any suggestions?

its just that, the bulb (im guessing blue bulb) is closer to the reflectors, giving off the blue tint.

thats why i use orange/red, too many different colors through out the car. looked wierd

I think that having the front and back in different color looks better. I would try some piaas since they have similar color for this wedge bulbs except the ionic yellow.

not bulbs, LED lights. get them from radioshack.

the blue LED's cost around $4-5, and you'll need some elite soldering skillz.

I havnt touched my cars LED's yet, but I switched all my computers power and activity lights blue, and my keyboard LED's blue.

its cool
