got my turn signal bulbs installed and i love the way they look! the high beam and low beams are so expensive that i'd rather get eyelids or somethin else, but i do want to replace the bulbs that i pointed the arrow to. are those these bulbs? https://celicahobby.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=28&products_id=115i'm just confused because it says on there that they are used for the fog lights. and how much would those bulbs cost somewhere like autozone?

Also just so you know the law states that any exterior light that is red and/or blue are illegal (impersonating a law enforcement officer). Its ok if the buld is blue but it is illegal if the light is blue, however, the bulb you pointed to doesn't really show up when your headlights are on, you should be ok but just so you are aware.

Darrell, dont worry about the 194 wedge bulb being blue. Your low beams and/or high beams will drown out the blue light.
I've mastered the art of the After Image Technique.

Your low beams and/or high beams will drown out the blue light. when i had on just the parking lights it was like bright blue, but you're right about the low beams not showing the blue as much. when i use my keyless entry the lights flash blue though.
