and dude, just go to autozone, take the bulb out of the parking light, tell them you want that LED but in red. it'll cost you 3 dollars with change. you'll have to install yourself which was a bit of a pain since i have my HID headlight batteries in the way, but i did it myself with no problems

You want amber/orange or yellow?

Amber:

If you are looking for yellow, like foglight yellow color, I don't know what to tell you. I know they make LEDs in that color, but I've never seen anyone put those in an auto bulb. Your best bet would be to go with a regular incandescent bulb like this:
