Yes in almost all states and Canada..But if you use amber bulbs it's legal..

It is not illegal, but make sure you run the right color bulbs. Also, try searching or some of the senior members will rip you a new [IMG]i/expressions/moon.gif[/IMG]

just make sure you have amber turn signals(7443) then you will be fine

thanks alot every1. Im gonna hafta take some time to do that one day.

I know in Illinois (last time I read the vehicle code...) any color for front turn signals other than white (clear) or amber were illegal.

White or yellow according to Highway Traffic Acts in Ontario, Canada.

Wa. State is Amber in front and Red or Amber (or any color in between) for the back!

I believe some states require an amber reflector on the front of the car. Check the local laws

i hope it's not illegal, i just cleared mine today.

Its not the color of the bulb thats important, its the reflector in the front. Most states require an amber reflector in the front.

Exactly! An amber turn signal is nothing. Some BMW's and even Neons have a white turn signal. It is legal in most states to have a WHITE or AMBER turn signal. What u need is an amber reflector in the front. by clearing your lights your reflector is now clear/white. if you want to pass inspection you have to get those cheapo sticky ones from pep boys.

This is true, but if you use an amber bulb, you shouldn't get bothered...at least I haven't yet. Just don't get pulled over for anything else.

i agree with oblivious, although as long as you have either white or amber emitting from the front of the vehicle then your ok, i have the state statue if you want it.

in cali, as long as the bulbs are white or amber, you are good. the cops don't mess witcha....at least they don't with me....but maybe thats cuz my car looks clean, and not really like a ricey import.....i dunno...

yup...exactly wut steph said...i know this first hand..because i went to the police station to get one of my fix it tickets cleared (no liscene plate on front bumper) and they tried to give me another one for havin clear headlights because they thought the bulbs i had where not white nore clear...but when i turned it on to show them everything was cool...so just make sure u got white or an amber bulb

In CA..... I think you gotta have an orange "reflector".

its not illegal as long as you have amber bulbs!!!

they look soo nice....but i can't do that!

alright thanx guys i just did it today now all i gotta do is get everything bak on my car thanx!
