hkmp7, i am interested in those bulbs and would be glad to pay. Just give me the information. I want them to match an HID System that I am thinking about getting for my 10r. Check this link out, http://store.yahoo.net/hidfactory/83heblhidkit.html I am looking at the 8300K Hella Blue/White HID KIT. Would these little bulbs match? The guys at hidfactory said that the kit install is not hard at all......

I hooked up my 194 bulbs as blinkers.The running light does not work anymore since it is a single filiment bulb but it is sweet.I have these amber booties that go over the white 194 bulb to make it orange.You can buy the booties @ www.motorcadeunl.com for 2.00 a piece.The blinker is very visible to oncomming traffic of you are running the euros :D

Are you saying you have those and the euro blinkers in use at the same time? The only problem I have with using those little lights is what to do with the stock blinker area.

Sorry, I am not up on the names of the bulbs. Can someone educate me on the bulbs and their names, and if possible the stock ratings (watts) and where to get cooler replacements and what watt rating do you recommend.
