ok so I just had my state inspection and emission done on my car. I have my headlights cleared with the OEM blinker bulb in there. The reflector is clear, since I removed the yellow piece that covered the blinker. If that little reflector needs to be yellow on the front on my car, and if cleared headlights are suppose to be illegal because of that fact, how can I pass my state insection? This was at a Firestone service station too, so it wasn't a shady, hole in the wall shop. I mean the guys that did the inspection could've probably cared less, but theorectically, shouldn't I have failed my inspection?

you can search on ebay, but really, it's a waste of money buying those "pre-cleared" headlights; for one thing, there's no guarantee that those won't fog, also, and also, it's really easy to prevent your own from fogging after you clear them yourself. just make sure you do a good job sealing them up afterward... save yourself 100 bucks or more...

you may have passed but you are still illegal. You MUST HAVE an amber REFLECTOR in the front. Most states allow either white or amber turn signals. So it is most likely legal to have a white turn bulb, but you must have an orange reflector. That is why Mex's DIY of painting the reflector is important.
