white turn signals

hi everyone !
i've been absent of this forum for quite a while because im sharing preacious moments with my Pepe =)
anyway.... i've been looking at pictures of cars with white turn signals.. and some are completely white and some have a little orange... when i ordered my mini i bought the white turn signals.... and someday i crashed and one fron light had to be replaced, but now im suspecting if they changed both lights with normal orange or they are still 'white turn signals' as when i ordered it.

so could someone post a pic of normal lights and one of white ?? please i've been looking a look and i get confused. (the front lights are the one i want to see, as the side lights are obviously white (: )

thanks so much :D

It is only the Lenses that are "White", the bulbs remain "Yellow".

Can still overcome...

the visual yellow tinge that you see through the clear (whitish) lenses if you want to, with bulbs that have what looks like a silver coating inside. They actually project yellow like stock.

yup, Chucky has the silverstar or whatever they're called bulbs. It's nice not seeing the yellow.

I replaced all my turn signal bulbs with white halogen bulbs. I got them on eBay for pretty cheap. Here are the bulb sizes:

parking - 2528
front turn signal - 7506
rear turn signal - 7507
fog lights - H8

Be sure to get the correct bulb for the rear turn signals, the ones with the offset pins. I also put mirrored bulbs for the front turn signals so they appear white (not blue) when not active.

I like the white look, it gives my clubman a very clean look.

ON THE Joey tail light mode,ie clear turn signal. How do you do this? I understand the process for the front turn signals but not the rear.
