You may have seen the postings about the DIY solution to yellow bulbs in white light housings (paint 'em silver). The posting also mentioned Silvervisions, which are pre-painted silver-colored bulbs (which glow yellow). About a week ago I got a message from John Conboy of Powerbulbs. He emailed me to tell me that they have a special offer on Silvervisions. It's still a more expensive way to go than painting your bulbs, but if you're not arts-n-crafty, the price is not bad -- about $44 for 4 bulbs, shipping included. I've seen them at other sites for about $50 ~ 60.

Important Note: UK turn signals work very differently than US signals --- I beleive these bulbs will work fine in the rear of any Z3, but in the US, they will not have the "parking light" element, so your corner markers will no longer "glow" when you turn on your lights (ie, they are not 1156/1157 replacements -- so ask before you order).
