Switchback Dual Color Parking Light/Directional?

I'm terrible with bulb size and wattage, I'm looking for a switchback parking light that stays white then goes to amber for the directional like this one:

Thanks

First of all you will need a LED flasher unit which can be found here:

As for the bulbs it self you can find them here:

or here:

http://autolumination.com/switchback.html

or here:

The size you are looking for is 1157 and just be warned autolumination has horrible customer service and a shady return policy if something happens to be wrong with the bulbs.

I have had experience with those cheap China made ones. They are not very durable and you will have to use tape to keep them on the connector and one the stock mount point. Not to mention that the connection spot will be open. As they always say for the most part you get what you pay for. Went through two of them and one of those two actually came dead on arrival.
