I'm after some clear (not amber) front turn signals for my 5th gen if anyone has any?

Cheers

I don't believe they exist.

They only exist by 'de-oranging' the original ones. I did this on mine by removing the unit from the car, removing the bulb/holder, and then breaking up the internal orange filter with a soldering iron. If you cut it into 4 pieces, you can then remove the orange bits without taking the lamp apart. It sounds fiddly, but it was pretty easy - just do it outside so the fumes dont get to you lol.

I use an orange bulb so there is a small tinge of orange left, but it you can find a suitable LED or silver tint one you might be onto a winner (although my experience with silver tint bulbs or any of these kinds of bulbs from ebay is usually a massive dissappointment).

They do, I have them: https://www.ebay.com/itm/222792025729

They are not OEM, but look rather decent:

Brilliant, thanks man. Shame they're only in the US though, the sellers says they'll ship to the UK but I'd probably get shafted on shipping and import fees

Well I never....

Chris - They are small and light and the commercial value is low. Even if you did get stung for customs duty, the value would not be so great (It is only ever a percentage of the value of the consignment).

Not at all, exactly as @Scott560 says.
They go through Global shipping programme so there will be no extra fees on what you pay on Ebay, import duties are calculated in. Mine totaled to 60USD.

Cheers guys! Yeah I noticed the little thing about global shipping after my last post. I've ordered a pair

For a minute there i thought you meant the side repeaters i was going to say i have some...

They are standard on a Prelude Type S, around £35 a side from Japan + shipping.

Haha, it's all good! Yeah I'm trying to remove all the amber as I think it clashes a bit with the crystal blue paint.
