Thanks but I believe once de tango the bulbs should blink orange but the colour of actual bulb is silver? As to not show the orange news of the bulb in the headlight

 

they flash orange mate only silver when not flashing

 

Always used Silvertec in my clear indicators and side repeaters on my Classic but not sure if they're about any more, a Google search doesn't bring up many options, otherwise you still have that orange blob in the middle of the lamp. I have seen people spray a very light dusting of silver paint over an orange bulb to get the same effect.

 

i know, the above linked bulbs are all orange when not flashing though and struggling to find silver bulbs that flash orange

 

did you click the amazon link ???
plus a couple more

Some say not E approved, Guessing these should be avoided?

 

some of us still have old stock of the silvertec I believe.........

 

i have these chrome bulbs on my front and back indicators , a pet hate of mine orange bulbs and white or clear lenses i even bought LED side repeaters to get rid of that look

 

Would LEDs be a better idea for this?

 

All my orange bulbs gone

 

where did you purchase from

 

The old silvertecs are great, fitted mine about 10 years ago and have never had to change them! Probably ruined that now by this post

 

back before you could buy silvertec bulbs we used to make out own, a light silver car spray over the orange bulbs lol

 

Leon,, I just got them off Ebay , the side repeaters came from America though

 

Give Alyn (AKA stockcar) a ring at ASPerformance on 0191 410 3770
