Default Amber running lights

I've seen some amber running or passing lights I think are attention getters. Are these amber sealed beams or amber bulbs? AnyonE know?

Thanks

I used to run amber covers on the passing lamps. They secured with velcro tabs. They do get you noticed. I have a pair for sale in classifieds or check Cee Bailey's www.

look into colored protective film for headlights, that is what i run and it allows you to use whichever passing lamp bulb set up you want, The amber sealed beams put out a pathetic amount of light.

This is the best price I've found for the sealed beams. They are pretty expensive at Napa, etc.

Not much light from the sealed beam amber lights. Better off with the Cee Bailey setup, IMO.

I recommend Wagner or GE 4415A sealed beam units. Be sure to get the yellow or amber, not brown ones. These have a wide 40 degree beam distribution compared to the stock narrow 11 degree beam distribution. They don't really provide a lot of usable driving light but they are much more visible to others on the road.
