Go to your local grocery store and get an orange Sharpie.

I got a set of amber LED bulbs off Ebay for about $15. I did the sharpie thing at first but it reflects orange and kinda defeats the purpose of clearing the lens in the first place plus it fades pretty quickly. The LED's have a trasparent yellow housing that reflects a little but not enough to be noticeable but the "bulbs" are clear. They do make your signals blink faster but I kind of like that about them too. You can find a picture of my car at www.tbas2k.com under the 11.9.03 pictures from Picnic Island where you can see them from a distance, Its the Silverstone with the naked lenses.

I use a set of LEDs in amber. They are the ones with four LEDs in a cluster. Mine do not effect the speed of the flash. One nice thing about LEDs, they don't burn out - unless you break them - no filament.

I can't find the link to these.

Anyone help me / S2KAE out on this?

i'm going to try to pull the bulb #'s from the top of my head, but i'd go confirm these on the write up you'll find on the boards here or also in .pdf format on rick's installation page.

I believe the amber ones are 7443 or 7446, 7440 is the correct number from the factory but they are the clear bulbs. I think I have seen the amber 744* at Pep Boys.

I simply get mine from the Honda Dealer: If they don't have them, they can order them in a day or two...
For those interested, Honda Amber Bulb Part Numbers:
33303-S2R-003 = Amber Turn Signal (7440)
33301-S5H-T01 = Amber Parking Light & Side Marker (168)
I pay around $3 each for them...Hope this helps, Jody
