How to get smoked lens with amber LED's on rear turnlight on my 09 Rocker C

I live in Norway and got my new Rocker C two months ago . I planned to put amber lightbulbs with smoked lenses in my front and rear turnlights . On my two front lights it was only to replace the bulbes and switch the amber lenses with the smoked one .
BUT, on there are LED's with amber lenses on my two rear turnlights .Is there anyone of you guys that now if there is any amber LED replacements w/ smoked lenses that could be used on this bike ?

You want red on the back, amber on the front...Is the law in the USA...makes you more visible at night too...Look at Kuryakyn for LED stuff...

Thanks for your info .
I agree that red is more visble but unfortunately in Norway the Law is that we have to have amber all the way around on our turnlights .

ummmmmm, many bikes come stock with amber lenses for the turn signal indicators, one of mine did, the other one is too old, it didn't have any turn signals, and still doesn't

Not sure about that, BD. The bikes come stock with amber turn signals on the rear. Red on rear turn signals/flashers, I believe, are illegal in certain jurisdictions because red is reserved for police bikes, no?

if all your lights are amber what do you use for stop signal ? The rocker is set up for turn, brake, and running lights in the same led light ! If you make the rear lights amber I would consider adding another red brake light !

In Norway we do not a brakelightfunction in the right/left rear turnlight.
The brakelight is located only on the rear fender on below the licenseplate
