Who here has clear corners?

All of your turn signal bulbs are clear because the lense is Amber. The DOT requires that the corner/side lights flash amber. Two options: use an amber corner with a clear bulb, or use a clear corner with an amber bulb.

How is the light output of your khaolty bulbs?

It looks fine to me. I have nothing to compare it with, though. I will be taking some night shots of my headlights monday, I'll get some of these as well.

My understanding is that DOT requires amber turn signals for a new vehicle to be sold in the US.

Whether or not there is a federal DOT reg requiring continued use of amber won't be much of an issue to him because local and state cops cannot enforce federal statutes and regulations.

If there isn't a specific state law that requires amber colored turn signals (which I don't believe exists) the only place there may be an issue is at inspection.

Either way I'll have an answer Monday.

The law cannot require amber turn signals; otherwise, almost all of the American cars would be in violation. Many cars nowadays have red turn signals.
Going with the law that only red, amber, and white may show from the back of the vehicle and only white and amber from the front, I think you'd be in cooperation with the law.

Yes, for new vehicles. That's why the E46 came with clear bulbs in it's amber lenses, or for the cars that had clear lenses, amber bulbs.

az- I can't recall any examples of what you're talking about. Cars like the E9X do have clear lenses with amber bulbs, etc.

Didn't go the clear corners route.

I like the yellow/red color combination (reminds me of my favorite combo, Cardinal and Gold).

This is the only color that I would keep the ambers on. Just werks.

I just use amber bulbs in my clear corners. And amber bulbs in my clear repeaters too. I like the little bit of color it adds. Breaks up the monotony.

The only problem I see with the front turn signals being white is that they might blend in with the headlights.
I guess we'll find out when Kayger gets back to us with a definite answer.
