just make sure they are the same watt and setup as ur stock bulbs. I just bought some clear corners with "replacement bulbs" from apc....that was ridiculous. They short circuited everything in my car. My turn signal relay, my dash, and a bunch of fuses.

there are only one kind of a bulb that I would buy (I belive they are Nokias or maybe not my local shop got them) but they are like $70. Sylvanias die after 3 month (waste of money). My friend had the good ones in for like more then year and a half and they are still good.
