Default 8000k HID's Turn Signal match.

I searched but couldn't find an exact match to my question..

I just installed 8000k HID's in my XB. They have a slight blue tint and I was wondering if anyone has found a good set of 1157 turn signal bulbs/LED's that comes close to matching the color without a blue bulb. I removed the orange reflectors and at the moment have chrome tinted bulbs that are supposed to be "super white" but they don't match. The trick is I'm trying to find a bulb/LED that isn't blue when off.

This would probally work well, but I'm looking for a bulb thats not colored blue when they are off. That i think it going to be tough to find. I am probally going to have to go with a LED I was hoping someone had 8000k HID's and had matched them already.

Yeah I was looking at LED's i wish they advertised them already in a car. You can never tell how they are going to look just laying there in the open.

yeah but the only real problem with LED turn signals is the fact that they will blink horribly fast until u get a resistor for it.
