I thought this may be the right section to post, a possible basic question.
I did do a searsh and found a bunch of led's posts.
I was wondering if this was only the 04-06 models or most elantra's?
The rear turn signals seem to be yellow, and not amber like the front turn signals? There def. not the same.
Any one replaced them and after, did any one get a nice amber or a odd yellow like my factory 06 has.
Or am I just crazy?

that could because they are painted bulbs and some of the amber paint on them has burnt off causing a yellow look to them

Possibly they could be the same colored globes, but the amber reflector in the headlight makes the difference.
If it bothers you that much though, just hit up http://superlumination.com/ and get some chrome/amber globes.

I have chrome/amber bulbs for my back signals. I might even try getting the chrome/red in the future. Anywho.....here is a pic of the difference between the standard and the chrome/amber if that helps.
