Okay, my thoughts on the Sylvannia 3157 Clear Turn Signal bulbs..and a question too...
I put the clear sylvannias in exchange for my orange turn signal bulbs, and they look great during the day, when they are off...but at night, they look like ****! See i have some super white bulbs in my lows and in my fogs, so they totally didnt match or look good with the color that the super whites put off. I went back to my stock orange bulbs...okay now for my question, are there any bulbs out there that are clear but blink orange? i have heard much talk of the Osrams...and how they didnt fit our cars. But there has to be a clear turn signal bulb that blinks orange out there, that fits an A4. Has anyone found one? maybe i just missed that converstaion....thanks for the help.

A note as to how they (Osrams) work
They're not exactly clear. I haven't seen one in person, but the FAQ on the site says: By the superimposing many interference coatings on the lamp glass, the light beamed from the coil is broken up, so that only the yellow part of light passes through the coating and is visible to the observer.
They actually look pale silver when unlit (giving the appearance that they're clear).
I haven't heard of other bulbs in NA yet that do what the Osrams do.
