http://www.cardomain.com or http://www.Crutchfield.com may have a few. They used to have a lot and thats where I got most of mine but I know they don't carry many anymore. I got the Eurolite ones and they work fine. I've got amber for the front and I think I may have them elsewhere also but not sure. I also have some APC hyper white bulbs that are good but that sounds like what you have now that you got pulled over for.

What size bulbs do you need? I could help more if you posted the size and colors you need.


A lot of auto parts stores or car stereo shops also carry stuff like this if you don't want to order online.

If it's for your 96 Accord EX in your sig it takes a 7440 bulb. Here are a few links to a few differn't amber bulbs. Some regular old amber bulbs some chrome that light up amber. I didn't see any red on Cardomain but just quickly looked through it. I don't think the turn signals are red anyway. Pretty sure only amber unless do you need the rear side marker lights too? They are red.


Anyways here are the links to the bulbs. Cardomain is a great site I've ordered several sets of bulbs from them.

I run those Eurolites in my front turn signals and have been for a year or two now and they work pretty well.


I run APC bulbs for my reverse lights and Pilot bulbs for my license plate lights. So I've tried them all. The Pilot bulbs I own were from wal-mart and made by Pilot but marketed as something else.

They all have lasted a while and I give them all a I don't know about any of the other bulbs on that site though.
