Default Cleared out factory corners lookin for good bulb????????????

I cleared out my factory corners and put in some clear 1157 bulbs. but when they are on they are dim and hazy lookin till you turn on the blinker or hazzards. im lookin for a clear bulb that will be as bright as the factory lights Thanks..............

I don't know what state law is in Miss., but in most places if you clear the corner you have to have an amber bulb in it.

As for the dimness, I believe it works similar to high/low beams, they are dimmer until you hit the blinker or hazard.

And i wonder where you got that information from?

Seriously though, the best site for any bulb in any size. I have bought from this guy several times and every time i clear a set of headlights i recommend him to the owners. I also recommend that you use the chrome bulbs and lights up amber. I have had mine installed for a couple years now and they havent discolored at all.

Silverstar makes an almost blue covered (but light and tasteful) set of 1157NA replacements that looks really nice. It's what I put on mine and I picked them up at the local auto store for a few bucks.
