chome indicators are going to make no odds what-so-ever as the orange bits built into the cluster, its a clear bulb that goes in if you look at the pic in the link you can see the orange without the bulb in

either of these

IIRC the ones from VW are £5 each so a trip to the stealers might be easier

Expensive but worth it IMO - Dont get cheap ones as most are not "E" stamped and light up redish colour  :smiley:
