Where'd you buy your LED front turn signal?
Bought LEDs for my exterior lights. All worked except for the front turn signal. Was told I should try other companies. Besides Bimmian.com. Does anyone have good results with other LEDS?

Engz, stick to stealth bulbs for the turn signals. Chrome when off, amber when on.
LED bulbs have to be canbus bulbs and its just not worth it.

Oh true. No wonder why I haven't gotten lots of research info on LED bulbs on the forum. Seems like not a lot likes to use LEDs. I might want to change my mind about this after hearing LEDs will most likely not last long. Those stealth bulbs look like something I want but I deleted all the amber colors so I want them to illuminate white to match. I'm going to search around. Thanks guys

You can get stealth bulbs that illuminate hyper white if you don't want amber.
Check Bimmian for their Solaris bulbs, its basically a xenon white (blue) halogen bulb that has the chrome coating for stealth. Not many use LED's on the turn signals because of the cold monitoring at startup, and because most of the LED turn signals are not as bright as halogen. To get the proper canbus/bright LED bulbs you'd be looking at $30-40 a pair, whereas the stealth bulbs can be had for $15 a pair.

I got a ticket for having clear turn signals so I can say this for a fact. The judge told me this..."you can't have clear turn signals in the rear because clear/white is reserved for reverse lights and the front can't be clear/white because it matches the headlights too much, someone won't know if you're trying to turn or flash them telling them to go"

You guys know what "white" turn signals or "xenon white" signals are extremely ricey/Honda-ish don't you?
The lens should be clear but the bulb should definitely be amber in color on the turns, which is why I recommend stealth bulbs.
