Aw bummin'.  I tried a Sylvania 55/60 "xenon" h4 bulb commonly available
at AutoZone in my 95 Trophy, and it did help a little in that the light's
color temperature was a bit whiter so it seemed to project a little
better.  It claims it outputs like a higher wattage bulb?  I'd bet the
same could be used in the ST...

I've also found I could run at night with the high beams on and cars
haven't once flashed me.  Must be the aim?  Anyone else notice this?

If someone does find a nicer looking parking bulb please post.  Also, if
anyone knows the Sylvania or other cross ref number for the dash indicator
bulbs I could use that.  My clock bulb went dark and I replaced with a
Sylvania 74 (I think) but it's a little bit small and I had to spread the
"feet" out to make it contact.  Doesn't look too reliable.
