I'm just wondering where I can buy coloured bulbs. More specifically, I want to find amber coloured 3497s, and 194s (very dark amber though. I want it to be as close to orange as possible). And I want to find white 1156s, and 194s (but I want these to be extremely white... not the regular "yellow" colour of incandescent bulbs)

I've seen these bulbs before so I know they exist somewhere, just not sure where to buy them.

Check out NAPA. We can get them in from our supplier.

Are they coloured glass or painted?.. I guess that's another one of my requirements.. heh.

AutoValue is probably the cheapest. The one in Riverbend has a wide selection of colored bulbs.

Are you doing a dash color change?

almost all the ones autovalue can get in are painted glass... i used to work there and had a hell of a time getting coloured glass bulbs ordered in. :(

Oh.. and no, I just want to replace some of my exterior lights to make them all match. Some of mine are starting to fade a bit now.

I am not sure if the ones are painted or not.
I know there are a couple different brands in the catalog.
