im not sure, it is confusing, but i would say it would be a stupid idea. If you just mean the light, then fine, but if im reading it right you are talking bout the turn signal, correct? In that case, a white bulb is rather retarded.
My apologies if i mis-understand

Now, after reading the sentences over and over again, I've decided I'll go with white bulbs because both sentences are independent of the overruling paragraphs b/c/d, and it wouldn't make much sense for them to put contradicting statements in the same paragraph.
Further more it specifically says: Substantially white when the lamp is a turn signal on or facing the front;
