If you don't want to see the orange tinge off an orange bulb through your shiney new indicators, you want something like these:

Have a look at the pins first!

Most orange 21W bulbs don't have the baonet pins at 180deg to each other (to stop you putting a white bulb in by mistake).

If you need inline pins in orange they are also avalable from the usual places but you sometimes have to look a bit harder as they are less common, they'll probubly say 382 on them.
