1. Go to Kragen or any other autopart store
2. Buy some chrome spray paint (doesn't even have to be high temp cause the turn signal isn't continuously on so won't really heat up).
3. Pull out the bulbs, give them a quick spray, let dry.
4. Put them back in.
Total cost....$4.

you don't need to disassemble anything. You can reach back and unplug, remove the bulbs behind the headlights. Just look in to see where the bulb is located from the front and reach back behind it to feel the assembly. It's not that hard to do.

I found these on ebay.
Front http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/3457-...Q5fAccessories
Rear http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/7507-...Q5fAccessories
Side Markers http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/194-C...item3a529c7843
Do these look alright? The pictures have a little orange showing on the bulbs.
Will they match the color of the signals on the mirrors?

The point is to switch the ugly orange bulbs to the stealth chrome bulbs, which still blink amber orange!
