Unless your signals are white, you want the LED color to match the lens color.
White leds, despite what our eyes say, are actually BLUE, and their phosphor coating gives off some yellow, to trick us into seeing white. Put a blue led behind a yellow or red lens, the result is not good. An incandescent bulb gives off mostly red and yellow light, so it works well behind these colored filters.
If your signals are red, get red led replacements, sometimes called red-orange or dot red.
If your signals are yellow, get yellow led replacements, sometimes called orange, amber or dot yellow.
for example:
right angle 1157 dual function
more 1157 bulbs
