Stealth Bulbs

So I'm looking to complete my headlight project by replacing the #7444 amber turn signal bulbs with chrome/amber stealth bulbs. First problem is that I can't find anyone who makes #7444 bulbs. The only ones I found are #7443. These put out a little less wattage. Searching some other forums I've found that chrome bulbs are dimmer than the same amber bulb that they replace. Does anyone have experience using chrome bulbs Are they dimmer? Seems like the #7443 in addition to to being dimmer to start also will be extra dim when they are chrome coated. Any suggestion other than leave them the way they are would be appreciated.

What's all this talk about the resistors? Why would we need them for the switchback bulbs? Do they not work just as they are?

Switchbacks cause a fast blink because they are led and draw less cuurent. They work if you don't mind fast blink.

i got stealth bulbs from stealth auto. these are legit. i liked them so much on my mazda that i got a set for our altima. use coupon code chrome10 at the checkout and get $10 off. i almost got leds until i found these. i didnt want to mess with resistors and all that crap.

hey warlord this is kind of off topic, but I just bought a 2012 3 hatchback and was looking to do some work on my headlights and I noticed in your picture that you had customized your amber corners in your headlights. Did you just take them out and paint them? its too hard for me too tell from the picture. Thanks
