The only color of lights that are allowed to shine forward are white & orange (amber). You can have blue and yellow bulbs so long as the color shows white.

Rep Power: 281 Hopefully you can just change out the bulbs. Show the judge that you already repaired the problem. on a good day, you should get off with just court costs.
