Question White Stealth Turn Signals

Does anyone make such a thing? The next closest thing would be LED's but I've heard a lot of bad things about going that route for Turn Signals. The only other thing I've found is the PIAA 7440 Xtreme White but I'm not a big fan of the Blue Bulb.

I don't think there are white stealth bulbs - they are chrome, at least the ones I saw are.
For LED turn signals, these seem to be a pretty good option. This is what I contemplate doing. Should fill the reflectors nicely.
Also, instead of load balancers, I was thinking about using the 3 pin electronic flasher they offer. I'm not sure if this is compatible with our car though - does anybody know? Also, this is something I'd replace an existing part with in the car, correct? Where is such a flasher, in the fuse box under the hood?

What I meant was White Light vs Orange Light, not an actual White Bulb. I like the Silver bulb but it's orange light.

I dont' think white turn signals are legal. You'll risk getting a ticket going that route.

PIAA makes Mirror Orange and Mirror White bulbs. The Mirror Orange has been on the market a while and I use them for my turn signals, the marketing pic below is actually misleading as they look far more chrome / stealth than the orange you see in the pic. A plus is that they light up much brighter than other stealth bulbs on the market.



The Mirror White bulbs are new on the market and I haven't seen them for sale on ebay or at local shops yet, but they do exist and will probably show up soon. I would like to get them for my reverse lights.



By the way, I tried the chrome bulbs that Autoillumination sells and they were very dim, so dim that I only installed one, tested next to a stock amber bulb and pulled it back out. Safety first ya know. I'd stay away from Autoillumination, their chrome coating is very thick.
