B.C. Motor Vehicle Act regulations regarding lights etc
I find this pretty helpful when trying to determine what I can and cannot do to my car. For example it tells me that for signal lights and parking lights, white is perfectly legal so I'll know what to say to cops when getting pulled over.

Archer, I ordered all my bulbs online at *************************. I'm going to be placing an order soon if you'd like to chip in with me and save shipping, it's quite expensive for small orders.
Remind me to show you my bulbs on Monday, I have LED-array bulbs for my front turn signals, and whites for the sides.

It's one bulb which contains an array of 20 LED's, but the housing is entirely clear, only when they light up it's amber. On that site, it's called the "Matrix" LED bulb I think.

i got mine at Canadian Tire. I got some APC bulbs that were very close and I lightly filed sown one of the nubs (you know at the bottom of the bulb to fir in the groove). They fit perfect after that and I have had them on for over a year now.

JTC, on that website, which one/what is the bulb number for our signal lights front and back.
Here's what I want to do with the signal lights. I want white (not white looking bulbs with amber lumination) in front and red (possibly white with red lumination) in the back. Gord has the red one at the back.
thanks
