crystal corner lights, side lights and tail lights illegal?

[Naras]

hey, i just wanted to know if it was illegal in New Jersey to replace the orange corner light case and the side lights with white (with a white bulb). I was also plannin on changing my taillights to smoked red and white and i was just wonderin if anyone knows if its illegal or not to have non orange signal/side lights


thanks

The side repeaters are not mandated in NJ.. but I believe they have to flash amber... so as long as you have amber lamps in there, you are fine.

As for the corner lights. you are supposed to have an amber reflector at the front side of the car. I have never been stopped for having clear corners though. I have had them in NJ for more than 5 years between my two cars.

Keep the ambers safe if you are paranoid about being stopped. they will at most write you a "fix it" ticket and you can get out of it (sometimes) by proving you put the ones with the reflector in

oh thanks alot man

thats a disappointment but i might just give it a go until i get tired of the tickets

I run clear (not the crystal clear style, the stock look but clear) sides, corners, and rears on my car. NEVER been pulled for them and I have euro-clear (white) bubls in all of them. It depends on the cops, as I know they are supposed to be amber. :)

if only cops drove bimmers they would understand

Just get some stealth bulbs. They look clear but flash amber.

IMO clear looks tacky. Spray paint some regular amber ones silver, spray paint and bulbs still cost less than one stealth bulb, and you have enough spray paint to paint new bulbs when the ones you have burn out.
