As above, on the Corsa ive fitted fully red rear lights apart from the reverse.

Fitted a normal white bulb, and it flashes red, also fitted an orange bulb, and it still flashes red (if you cover the light with your hands and get real close it does look orange)

Question is, what colour bulb should i use to make it flash a decent yellow/orange? :(

I wouldve thought that normal ones wouldve been yellowish? lol

But they look gey! lol

These look really smart on the car, but just a shame they flash a deep orange rather than "yellowish orangish"

You wont get a orange flash through a red lense really. It will always look red-ish

^ yep, common sense really!

Try a (bright) yellow LED bulb.
