corner lights?

I know of the piaa headlights that offer as true to hid that halogen can produce (any others that members particularly like?)...
But are there any special (brighter lights for the corner lights? Is it even worth it. I am looking to get the clear corner lenses just thought i would ask. Thanks in advance, chris

Another route to get much brighter tail lights is to use the "brite lite" bulbs from Ron Francis Wire-Works HERE

Click on the online catalog button and then search for "brite bulbs" in the sub-category.

The bulbs you want are the 1077 (for clear bulbs) or 1077A (for amber). The candlepower for the for this bulb combination is 50/14 (compared to 32/3 for stock) Bulbs are $6.50 each and not available anywhere else. Use the 1077A (same candlepower as the rears) for your front turn signals and the 1015 bulb for your rear turn signals.

In real terms this means my tail lights are as bright as stock brake lights. When I apply my brakes you KNOW they are on!!!

The brite-lites were developed for the street rod industry. Cars fron the 30's and 40's had very small tail lights and something was needed to give the stock tail lights more visability while keeping a stock appearance) I have quite a few spares of each in case of a burn out. I will never go back to other bulbs.
