Clear Amber Bulbs on Amazon?

They might... it just depends on what type of socket and circuit it is. The front bulbs use a dual circuit, or dual filament, which I have no idea why

They might... it just depends on what type of socket and circuit it is. The front bulbs use a dual circuit, or dual filament, which I have no idea why because they only blink. But if you put single filament bulbs in the socket, they won't do anything. I tried using the 7440 for the front and they did nothing.

The bulbs I spent $30 on that were "supposed" to work, didn't... so I ended up having to use clear bulbs in the front that blink clear. I'm going to change all of my blinkers to LEDS and wire in the control boxes soon... so it's not that big of an issue now.

Gotcha. These are going in the rear blinker so we will see what happens when I get around to doing it..
