would that even be legal? I thought the law was white on front and red on rear.

Mr furious is who you are looking for. I think as long as the light it let's out is white or car headlight color. I've seen chrome that when lighted up show like normal.

Yep. I don't know if it would look cool on my midnight blue Roadie, but it really looks great on a white one.

That's the Cobra lightbar with their spots. They take the PAR36 sealed beam bulb with the screw on terminals. While digging around I found that these are the same bulbs that came in the grilles of some late 60's Mustangs.

I got the set in the pic from Bulb Man Inc.

Since then I found them at JC Whitney in fluted and non-fluted. You can get both styles in amber, blue, clear or red. Can't run the red or blue obviously.

According to JCW they fit this spot light housing. I'm thinking they are the same as the Mark Cole passing lamps writeup here on the Clinic. Didn't cross check that though.

Not sure if the Yammi light bar takes a PAR36 sealed beam. I believe the newer ones take a halogen bulb like the headlight.
