Umm.... "clear amber"? That doesn't make sense.

7440 is going to be for the rear... these DO NOT work in the front lights.

I bought some from here: The site looks sketchy but they are legit.

Tail Light Brake Light Turn Signal LED Bulbs

The 7443 is going to be for the front... Sylvania says the 7444s fit, but I can not find them to save my life. I tried to buy the single filament for the fronts and they didn't' work.. they have to be dual.

Well, I bought the bulbs on amazon and the seller stated that the 7443's will work for 7440's. So i guess we will see once I get a chance to try and put them in...

They might... it just depends on what type of socket and circuit it is. The front bulbs use a dual circuit, or dual filament, which I have no idea why because they only blink. But if you put single filament bulbs in the socket, they won't do anything. I tried using the 7440 for the front and they did nothing.

The bulbs I spent $30 on that were "supposed" to work, didn't... so I ended up having to use clear bulbs in the front that blink clear. I'm going to change all of my blinkers to LEDS and wire in the control boxes soon... so it's not that big of an issue now.

Fair enough, but you probably could have worded that better.

Gotcha. These are going in the rear blinker so we will see what happens when I get around to doing it..
