Default amber lights

I have been wanting to take out the amber plastic piece in my head light but i can't seem to find an amber light bulb to replace the clear light bulb that's in the car now. so if anybody can shine a light on this for me i would really appreciate it.

IIRC, you bake the headlight to "loosen" the amber piece and then take it out.

you mean bake the lights to loosen the lense/cover from the headlight so you can remove the amber piece.
