Does anybody have a good way of tinting or coloring the inside of a glass front parking lamp lens to an amber color? I have tried using an amber 1157 (small) type bulb with no luck. The bulb has to be the small one inch ROUND not oblong (hot air balloon) type or it wont fit. The coating on them (or the ones that I have) eventually just burns off and you are left with a white or slightly yellowish bulb - I have also tried using LED bulbs but A, they are not as bright no matter how many LEDs they contain ( trust me, I have tried a bunch and still have them laying around in my bulb drawer), I can barely see the park lamp illumination in the daytime and B, the ELECTRONIC flasher, the one that is supposed to work no matter what bulb type you have, does not flash when I use an LED lamp - So - I am looking to tint or color the inside amber so I can just use a standard 1157 type bulb And no, I cant just get a colored glass for this unit or I would have already :-)
