Is the turn signal clear in that there is no orange plastic to make an orange blinker? Or do you have to buy an orange turn signal bulb. And what is the bulb # for it?

Thanks.

If you buy the bulbs from a regular auto-parts store, the turn signal bulb is a 7440 bulb. The citylights are a 168/194 bulb. (Either will work. I think 168 is brighter than 194. But I have Superwhite 194) The fogs are H1 bulbs.

You don't necessarily "have to" run an amber bulb. Federal law says the front turn signals may be white or amber.

yea that's true...but the other drivers don't know that... they might not be able to tell whether you are turning or not with semi yellow bulbs...

I call the ones on the 06' lights "CityLights", because they aren't anywhere near bright enough for me to consider them Daytime Running Lights. Either that, or my superwhite 194's are just dim

Smile 06 headlights

Is this plug and play, so you had to buy the headlights, and all the bulbs that went with it correct? I have an 05 and I wear glasses while driving and the 05's aren't so bright, yes I need something brighter. How much was everything? thanks
