Just for info the sylvania silvastars have a blue ball bearing look to them. Iirc the stealthauto ones were popular stateside. clicky

Just check on proper filament info though.............I think some bulbs have single filament & others have dual so in event side bulb blows it can illuminate the marker

Cant be more specific - I got so confused thinking about sourcing & other issues that I gave up.

Ironic you want chrome look - what with your liking for orange

Do the indicator bulbs illuminate amber as bright as standard bulbs ?

Do they appaer to be sprayed /dipped standard bulbs

I ask this as some bulbs have poorer amber light emission than others

I would say they were about 3/4 as bright as a standard bulb but still really bright, they are chrome at the top and regress to orange at the base but still all chrome if you know what i mean, i would say dipped as there is no blemishes at all that you would get if sprayed.....Tbh i am quiet surprised at how good they are, if they were crap i was just gonna bin them.
