I am selling mine from iJDM toy. I bought 2 pairs and am selling one. They work great and are super bright.

You don't need the iJDMtoy versions since they just released new ones with built-in resistors without those spliced resistors they did. You don't have to worry about mounting the resistors. Aliexpress search: 7443 no hyper flash canbus
You will find them under $20 a pair with either white or yellow colors, free shipping as well. iJDMtoy is also selling the same versions for around $30 I believe. Not too sure on the warranty terms by them but Aliexpress usually has a 1 year warranty. I was able to get a 2 year warranty on mines by bulk buying them for some people.

I want all 4 bulbs changed out. Don’t I need resistors for all 4?

Nope. Thats what makes these new types so much better. They have the resistors built-in and it's the same size as a 7443 LED bulb just the electronics have them built-in(as what it should have been designed in the first place). So there isn't a need to mount resistors and splice wiring. Eventually we will see these "no hyperflash and canbus" turn signals appear on a lot of LED sites.

Plus I thought our original bulb was 7440 not 7443

They have it for the 744X series of bulbs. You can order a set of 7440 and a set of 7443 bulbs. But 7443 can replace 7440 but 7440 cannot replace 7443.

I forgot which bulb was a tad smaller in diameter but it's safer to get a pair of 7443 and a pair of 7440 for fitment.

iJDM is the brand I went with(no way related to iJDMtoy). Their stuff is good and is well worth the price.

Does it matter which bulb goes in front or rear? Sorry for all the questions. You’ve been a great help

Yes. I believe the front is a 7443 bulb and rear is 7440.

The front is the smaller diameter from what I saw since I tried sticking the 7440 in and that couldn't go in versus 7443 should be able to clear the rear as well.

The 7440 is a clear bulb versus the 7443NA is a amber bulb from factory. They are pretty much the same bulbs just one is colored and one isn't. Actually 7440 has a NA version as well.

Someone should really start making bulbs standard and not just use what you feel like putting. It get's annoying when having to bring in 7443/3157/BAY15D bulbs for all types of cars. Same goes for T10(mini/standard) and festoon(29mm/31mm/etc...)

I can’t find the 7443 bulb in amber just switchbacks.

7440 Bulbs

7443 Bulbs

Amber bulbs only. I don't suggest running out of DOT colors.
