Yeah for sure they do. They are bright as well. They throw a little amber when you look at them but not as much as the orange colored ones, kinda gives it a cleaner look.

I can't believe it, but i vote NO on black headlamps/corners on your truck. It won't match all the chrome that you like and have on it. imo....the black headlamp/corners would look very out of place.

Silverstar needs to make 194's that are coated with the same stuff as the 3157's...i'd rock silverstars like that. I like my Amber's to match.
