Default Wish to change DRL's to Amber

Thanks in advance for any help on ideas to change my DRL's to Amber. Does anyone know if an LED replacement/fit is available that will not throw a code? Perhaps someone can point me to a good source?

You should look for 7440 size bulbs to replace the stock w21w bulbs. Try these they supposedly work on the mk6. http://store.ijdmtoy.com/7440-Single...ee-7440-2n.htm These come in white and amber.

Default Amber Lights

If the change to amber DLR's works out. We should have all forum members change to them out so we can see members when we're on the street. It would be great to chat face-to-face.

Why on earth do you want to change the DRLs to amber light are supposed to be white?

People complain the standard DRLs show amber after a time. Its like when the French used to have yellow headlamps what a load of ****.
