Default silver bulbs (turn signals) & markers

Where can I get silver bulbs for front and rear turn signals? Ideas? do any of our vendors cary them?

courtesyparts, performance etc


Also who sells the side markers that are on the inside of the lamp. (amber strip) Also curious who sells those and if they are difficult to remove.


I will be trying to install the HIDS and i figure since my bumper will be off I might as well get those.

best "budget" silver bulbs are evostyle. others tend to overheat the housing. they are 40$ for a set of 4 I think. I have LED bulbs, 90$ a pair.

I also have headlight strips in clear and smoked, but they are currently unavailable. should be for sale again in 1-2 months.

Make sure you use the coupon code for the EVOstyle.com bulbs, you'll save quite a bit.

do not get those cheapy silver bulbs off ebay. i got some of those and it kinda messed up my headlights, it made the chrome kinda dull right above the bulb area. luckily i got a replacement headlight from the dealership.

and if you are gonna change out that orange strip be sure you are patient when opening the headlight. its not difficult but very time consuming.

The Evostyle signal bulbs work well and fitment is good. They will not flash as bright as OEM or LED's. Not really noticable. I've tried both and went with the LED's front and rear.

Yea, for the price, they look nice. They dont flash anywhere near as bright as the stock ones though.

Some have had a little fitment difficulty with them but theyrea worthwhile buy if you cant afford the more expensive LED ones

Default Fitment

I know some of the earlier Evostyle bases had to be "modified" to fit; but mine, which arrived in mid May, snapped right in with zero difficulty. If you want to get rid of the "orange" look, either set will do the trick. The LED's have perfect fitment as well. ( my new set snapped in dead on )
