Scotty, do you see what I was saying about them burning too bright? With the marker lights on, IMO, it looks funny. Is there a single element amber bulb that we can use that's only the brightness of the marker lights?

You need to find a 12 watt bulb for that :dunno:

Or, if you're lucky, using a 3157NA will have the low wattage filament light up...

Damn... It's lighting up the signal filament :(

Have you tried a 3057NA? I think those are the single filament marker lamp only bulbs... :dunno:

Sorry, 3056 is what you want... 57s are dual filament, 56s are single...
You'll have to hunt for one that's around 10 watts, though...

Unless you can change which filiament gets the power...

Just get some 3157 sockets and got GMT400 style :thumbs:

Edit: And put these bulbs in all 4 sockets!
