Looks good...you're talking about the turning/parking lights, correct?

Yeah, polrag bulbs are probably the best ones out there with matching white color. I have just changed mine to polrags up front and all over the interior...couldn't be happier.

I have Piaa Extreme White 194's and 1156 for the Clearance Light. I also am running Cool Blues in the 9004. I hope they all match. Haven't installed the Clearance Lights yet.

watch out for the Polargs... I had a set and they were SMOKIN haha they were so damn hot...
it probably was only me haha but it was a sobering lesson with bulbs

I run Xenons so it'll be hard for me to match no matter what... I'm gona try PIAA Extreme whites

but it looks nice, really matches everything... hehe mine USED to be like that when I had Polarg everything

which bulb did you have problems with? was it because you have the rewired corner lights?

origionally I bought the sarona eyelids so I shaved the "nibs" off the headlights before I found out that the saronas didnt fit. I returned them so I was left with 2 scratched up lenses where the nibs were so I was going to get some custom eyelids made and the ones you see now are my vinyl eyelids to cover up the scratched up part until I find some real eyelids
