You can buy "clear" bulbs from www.MX5Mania.com.au they flash orange. You have to then remove the orange plastic from the insides of the lens. Then your MX-5 won't look cross-eyed.

If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

What year model is your NB? If is 98-2000, you will need to take the plastic off the inside (like Okibi said) or if you have a very late 2000-2005, you'll only need to replace the bulb.
