Default Just bought clear corners and sidemarkers...a few questions

They look great on my silver 1.8TQ. <p>Now, when I use my signal lights, the corners flash orange but the sidemarkers flash white, which I think looks ugly. So I have two options, either to change the corner bulbs to white, or change the sidemarkers bulbs to orange to match one or the other. <p>I would prefer to have both of them to flash white light, but isn't that illegal to have the corners to flash white instead of orange?<p>Thanks<br>Kev

White corners are illegal. Get amber bulbs for the sidemarkers.

I once saw a police cruiser with white bulbs in their blinkers.NT

Default Illegal to flash white and in CA it is illegal to (more)ave the lenses be clear as well

My brother-in-law (well, after Amy and I get married) is a CHP officer. He and I were out this past week and saw a Civic with clear corners and tailights and he made a comment on how stupid they were. I asked him what he meant and he said that unless the lenses are DOT approved they are illegal. Just cause they are for sale doesn't mean they are legal. So, in CA, clear, fogged, etc tailights are apparently illegal, and clear corners are too. And the bulb must flash orange. But he also said it isn't something worth writing tickets for, unless the guy driving the car is a putz.<p>Jon<br>'96 A4q
