Default Who makes the Clear bulbs that light up yellow for clear corners??

Does anyone know who makes the bulbs for parking light corners that are suppose to look clear (and a little silver-ish) when there are turned off and light up yellow (or orange or whatever) when they are turned on. I am getting clear corners for my '99 Teg and I want to get those bulbs, but I don't remember who makes them.

Anyone know? Anyone had any experience with them, any good??

I heard you can spray paint them very lightly with silver high heat paint. They will look clear but when turned on are orange. Can anyone back me up on this??

Thanks

Paint 'em. The Philips SilverVisions and the Polarg equivalents are just way too damn expensive. Do a light coat of high temp silver on them and you'll be laughing. Don't put too much on or they won't light up very well. Fortunately the paint comes off with a bit of 000 or 0000 steel wool if you put too much on.
