Swap Rear Blinker Bulbs to the Front - Yay or Nay ??

As luck would have it both blinker bulbs at the front are blinking at twice the normal speed, a very clear signal (no pun intended) that both bulbs are heading south.
When I upgraded the rear lenses to the clears I kept the stock clear (white) bulbs.

So my Q is: Does anyone know if I can reuse the stock rear blinker bulbs in the front blinkers ??

RealOEM.com Online BMW Parts Catalog shows an S8 wedge type bulb for the front however not for the rear.

Note: Unfortunately as at this stage I have not upgraded my headlights, therefore I still have the orange blinker corner lens in place, which means I must use (white) clear blinker bulbs.

If anyone could shed some light (again, no pun intended) on my blinker bulb issue I'd be most grateful.

Cheers,
Foomph
