Colored glass bulbs
Anyone got any Links to some Quality Glass Bulb Dealers?
Slim pickins in the Rural Area I'm in. I'm looking for: #1157-Red Glass #1156 Clear (not a problem) #1156-Amber (not a problem) Along these lines, I was going to go with Clear Side Marker Lenses , so is it Amber Color in Front and Red in the Rear? If so, than I'll need some #194 in Amber #194 in Red Roger

Re: Colored glass bulbs
Just a suggestion...
http://stores.shop.ebay.com/V-LEDS__W0QQ_armrsZ1 You have to be careful with some of the 1157's, though. I bought a complete set for my '68, and the particular ones this guy was selling didn't fit in the housings. I imagine some will, some won't. I've had no problems with his small colored 194's, though. I used the 5 SMT LED bulbs in my dash - bright white/blue instead of the pale green. I like it!

Re: Colored glass bulbs
I just thought of something.
I run these on my Motorcycle with a Clear lens and they work great: http://www.phatperformanceparts.com/...41&click=37735 Anyone know if it could be used on my GMC? I use these on my Bike because they were a higher candle power. I was just wondering, if I'd run into "any Problems" using these on my Truck (ie. overloading the wiring or a circuit? Roger
