Default Silver Signal bulb?

Have anyone ever tried or heard of this silver signal bulb that supposely make the housing clear on a GS, but from reading DIY from bananags site, you have to clear out the yellow lens inside? Please advised...

I have them too, and you can barely see the light blinking during a sunny day.
Other than that it looks great when turned off and works well during night.

I bought those same ones off ebay. They don't work.....all the guy did was spray paint the tips of some regular orange bulbs. Rip-off!
