I replaced the OEM 2002 S rear amber/red tail lights today with 2003-2004 clear/red . No big deal doing the swap and I really like the look. But I am still using the OEM clear turn signal bulb should I change that to a yellow bulb ? I turned on the blinkers after doing the swap and you can see them in the shaded garage but not sure how visible they will be in sun light . So is amber bulbs the way to go ?
