well...ask your local DOT what is legal in your state. i have clear bumper lenses and the marker is white but i put amber in blinkers. i'm thinking about pushing my luck and replacing those with white bulbs - will see if i get pulled over...

i'm pretty sure that purple and red are out of the question though.

here's a little bit on lights:http://fmvss108.tripod.com/

I dont know how it is down in hyannis but up here you will get harassed by the cops all the time if they see that you have something that doesnt conform with local laws. Best bet for not getting pulled over is to not make yourself a target. So my suggestion is to throw some ambers in those clear corners.

snwbrdr435 do you know is there any kind of a law on state inspection if you have a custom intake, coz my dad said something about it and i asked the guy doing the inspection and he said i cant have it, but he still passed my car coz he work for us, but starting next year we won't have it so i just want the heads up

Just go with white it looks clean. These are the bulbs I've got little expensive but super bright.

Just be sensible. I've seen people with clear side that look great, but they put SUPER high LED whites in them, and at night, not only do they look dumb, but i'm practically blinded. Can never really go wrong with amber.

These lights are bright but not blinding bright I just ment brighter than some 4 led bulbs, and whats the point of getting clear corners with amber lights they are clear for a reason... to get rid of the stock amber lenses. Just my opinion tho, I do know what you are saying about lights being too bright and not fitting with where they are on the car...

they don't do inspections in MT but i doubt it should be a prob. i might be wrong but i thought it's mainly about the driveability and emissions. if you couldn't get your sticker with an intake mod what about turbos etc???
