Yeah I noticed the rears. How do the reverse lights come out? Surely not clear any more.

Yeah you use a different colour bulb to get the indicators orange. Never heard what to do for clear reverse lights though.

Some cars like the Peugeot 106 have all red rears as standard so there must be something you can do to get the right colour light to shine through.
