thats what u want...

stealth ambers are ur amber bulbs that are painted silver, but light up amber. That way you get rid of the orange glare in the headlight when they are not in use.

heres my install..

Sorry, the stealth version of the amber bulbs in the headlight..... trying to get rid of the amber color.

My local performance shop didnt know what I was talking about either..... so maybe they go by another name???

For example... majesty's max

You freakin guys

just get some silver enamel spray paint, and spray a regular amber bulb with a light coat. It will shine through just fine, but look "stealth" when unlit.

all of the locals around here have been doing this for years now...stop getting ripped off buying "stealth" or "chrome-coated" bulbs from companies...paying $20 for a $2 bulb....
