Are the rear bulbs and corner bulbs the same?
I purchased a couple of bulbs for the rear "corner" and was wondering if these bulbs are the same as the front corner bulbs. Any ideas?

not really... pics of both (kinda) inside
concentrate on the bases of these bulbs, not the actual bulb itself
this is what the rear bulbs look like (bayonet style)(SINGLE FILAMENT like for blinker, reverse, rear fog)

DOUBLE FILAMENT(for rear brake lights)

and this is what the fronts look like(wedge style)(dual filament)

what year is that? My 99.5 front turn signals are wedge style (and I put clear ones in not amber)
but that's me being ricey, YES it's legal (well I haven't gotten pulled over) because even the clear bulbs will glow a little bit amberish. Your pic of the bulbs are for older ones because the side blinker for 99.5 plus needs the amber tiny bulb since our plastic is clear, but I changed that one to a clear one also.
BUT KUDOS on the better pic (google, you let let me down, man, you let me down)
