TEXAS LAW?

Hey everyone, I am going to clear my headlights and I have a question. Is clearing my headlights illegal in the state of texas? I don't want to do this and get a ticket or something because it is illegal. For those that have done it and live in texas, I would really appreciate your help.

I think I remember a member who said he cleared his, bought amber bulbs and then read somewhere that you don't even need amber bulbs in TX. In any case, you can have clear them and get amber bulbs. Then you'll be legal in all states.

blackbullet will become famous soon enough

I got stopped for my LED washer nozzle lights, and the cop said that my turn signals and headlights were legal. So you shouldn't have a problem with them.

I've got a link somewhere, but front turn signals have to be white or amber, and rear red or amber.

Here you do : Texas DOT Turn Signal Requirments

We can have white, yellow or amber up front, and yellow, amber or red in the back.

Thats was me when I first cleared my headlights a few months ago. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] I currently have PIAA Xtreme White turn signals up front. Never gotten any trouble from them with the police.
