Default what size bulbs for cleared headlights?

I need some orange bulbs for my headlight corners. I found different answers in a search, are they 7440? Are they single or double filament?

and the sidemarkers are 194 bulbs, wedge?

okay, so both single and double filament 7440 will work up there? I just want to make sure I have the right stuff when everything is apart.

What are the stock bulbs, single or double - anyone know for sure? thanks for replies

The Sylvania website says stock is 7443. I just don't recall that being correct. I'm pretty sure the stock bulbs are the single filament 7440.

It sounds like you have cleared corners. May I make a suggestion. I have these: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...&category=33717

They are amber bulbs that have been electroplated. They look white/silvery in the headlights but light up amber.



EDIT: The 7443 have two filaments for some brake light applications. We can use these bulbs. Since our connector only contains a pair of contacts for the low filament that is the one that will be used. You wouldn't want the brighter filament lit up in your headlight anyway.

On a similar topic, the rear turn signals are 1156, correct? I found another thread that said this, but that # is hard to find in stock at places.

Send a PM to R_Duff. He has a box of stealth bulbs for the S2000 that are silver when unlit and amber when lit. Perfect.
