7th genners...will you all please change out the rear turn signal bulbs?

I love the look of the 7th gen but cringe every time I see a great shot of the rear (no homo) with the ugly amber bulbs in the turn signals. It really breaks up the tail lights. So, in order to make me happy please go switch out those amber bulbs with some of the chrome ones that blink amber... or red if you like.

See... ugly amber ruins this shot.

Get some of these...

Silver Stealth Titanium Chrome Vision


I have them in my headlights and they rock...

*disclaimer* I don't have any ties to autolumination - I bought these bulbs there but I haven't looked to see if anyone else sells them.

Thank you.

Does anybody honestly really care what color the turn signal bulbs are? It's not as if you are outside staring at them when you are using them..
