Thoes dang yellow lights on the chevy's

Ok I know you have all seen them, camero's caddys, ect all have the yellow BRIGHT a$$ lights for corning/front marker lights. Anyone know what bulbs they use and is it just the bulb or does the housing/reflector/lens have alot to do with it??? I saw them on a caddy tonight and WOW they look cool!

Our saturn had very bright marker/DTRL and it just used a standard 1157 amber bulb. But from the front you could see it a very long way away. The signal light sin the rear would also light up the whole road behind me,also 1157

huh... k I guess it must be the reflector/lens that makes it look sooo bright, but the blinker mod, is on the way here.

Oh and I checked the chevytalk website, but I couldnt bring myself to register on a Domestic car site

the 27 watt filament is the key here, they dont do anything else. they have a special relay or sumpin that switches between the parking light and blinker all for the same filament. i cant remember the name of the module that does it but its a 3 letter acronym. any how its a regular bulb.
