Default LED Parking lights, amber/white .. is it possible?

I am collecting all need LED lights needed for my whole car, now I had an idea regarding the fron parking lights, I thought it may be possible to find some LEDs that has a white color for parking and turns into amber for turn signalling, is such LED exists? I tried so many different LEDs website but I just didnt came through it.

My thought was it may be a 50/50 of amber/white small LEDs.

any inputs?

You can probably find quite if you do a search for LED. Suggest using Advanced search.
There have been many discussion threads. Here are a few links. . .

Hi Jim,

I've been through these websites, I cant locate what I'm looking for. What I need is a dual illumination (amber/white or yellow/white) LED bulb. for the back up it white will lid, and when I turn signal the amber or yellow color will flash. all with in the same bulb. like if a single bulb has 16 LEDs, there should be 8 white and 8 amber/yellow.

Anybody knows if they exist at all?

You would need separate circuits for the diff. colors, which would mean a custom PC board which I don't think you would want to pay for.

Digi-Key will have what you're looking for! I found yellow/white but may have amber/white. White may also be called 'clear' but not sure. Phone: 800-344-4539
