bpj Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 ...who likes the look of amber bulbs behind clear lenses, or am I just strange? In practically every build thread they're swapped out for silver bulbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edc Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 It's not just the silver bulbs. For the complete non amber look you have to remove the orange lense inside the headlight. I think on the silver, black and blue cars it looks better without the amber. Yellow and red is ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southy Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 I always thought those style lights were the perfect balance between clear and Amber. Sadly as @edc mentioned these normally get modified to make all clear lights and resold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edc Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 The proper amber lights can be modified to clear by grinding away the top layer of amber plastic. I don't know whether they still have the amber indicator reflector inside as well. For the facelift cars with clear lights, they all have the amber reflector inside the headlight unit so despite changing to silver bulbs will still have a tint of orange unless you get that amber reflector out.
