to answer katsbimmer's question, the turn signal bulb is silver-coated, so when it's not lit, you can't see the orange/amber through the white lense, but when it blinks, it blinks orange/amber

I can see the amber light through mine. Could I have gotten blacklines with no silver coated bulbs? It's not real noticeable but I can see a little yellow.

If the bulb burns out, will the dealer replace it with a silver coated bulb or the standard amber bulb?

on mine the all the bulbs were already installed. take old tail lights out, put new ones in. they come with silvervision turn signal bulbs which are silver coated. if you study it at enough angles, you might see a bit of amber, but for the most part, you see no amber unless they're activated.

At certain angles you may see a little amber reflecting onto the back of the light assembly. But for the most part they look clear.

They mean when the lights are on, you can see white light coming through at certain angles.
