Question indicators

Hi guys, I ordered some smoked lenses with orange bulbs... only I didn't!

I ordered the clear lenses with same bulbs by mistake... now I'm wondering if I should keep the clear ones as they may be more visible???
Also... I believe they make silver looking bulbs that flash orange? Would they be better if I keep the clear lenses as you wouldnt be able to see then in the housing so well?
Any advice or input welcome... except about leds as that's not an option at present... cheers and happy Biking....

Why are LED's not an option? If you can change the bulb you should be able to get the bulb in LED these days.
I have never seen a silver bulb that flashes yellow other than an LED.....
If it was me I would put a blue colored bulb in that flashes white as it looks the best (But hard to see) but it may be illegal in your city? (It is here but I have it anyways.

Its just the way I decided to go for now, only costs £22.28 including the silver bulbs and takes years off it I think?
Lenses are here, with orange bulbs, im keeping the clear ones as are brighter,I've ordered some orange flashing silver bulbs as you can't see them through the lenses like orange ones.
Pictures are not working for me ATM...
What do you mean by led bulbs? Do you mean in oem housing? Would that mean wiring and relays etc?
Thanks...

Majority of bulbs can come in LED's now.
Give me the part number and I will look and see if there are LED's for that, just so you can have another option.
They dont require extra wiring per say. If you dont find fast flashing they are plug in play, If you want them to flash the same as now, you just need a resistor inline with them.
