Im new..... um.. the clear corners, does anyone have clear corners that the light inside is white or blue(not orange). Is it against the law to have white lights in the corners b/c i dont like the orange in the lights. Ive seen people with clear corners but with orange lights. just wondering if its possible to have white lights with clear corners and not be breaking any laws.
Thanks

To the best of my knowledge (correct me if I am wrong anybody), it depends on which state you are driving in. I know that in NYS, it is illegal to drive with white turn signals. I'd just ask people around my state who have lights like that before actually buying em.

white bulbs

I live in IL, and not totally sure if it's illegal or not, but I use the clear bulbs in the clear outs, and it's bright enough so that it would never be a problem to see them, even at daytime. Anyway, it's fairly obvious that it's the turn signal lights, even at night, so I'd say you'll be ok with them. However, DO NOT USE BLUE BULBS in there, you WILL get a ticket, that day, or if you are lucky... the day after. Seriously, cops will not appreciate the blue bulbs up in front.

hope that helps

Re: white bulbs

I have super white bulbs in clear bumper lenses(both, blinker and side marker), live in MA and haven't had a problem yet. Just a month ago my buddy was taking a driving test in my car. Cop looked if the blinkers worked but didn't say anything about them being white.

My max came with white corner lights (the ones next to the headlights) right from the factory. ( I bought it used, but all the '96s I've seen have WHITE corners) I assume that it's built to be leagal in all 50 states.

In Missouri, you can have white or amber front turn signals. Unless the cops don't know the law, I'd think that white corners are ok in all 50 states unless you rig them to blink when you turn or something.
