Default Is this legal

The front corner lights on a crx, is it legal to have blue bulbs in the part of the corner light that is normally clear-white, and I not talking about the turn signals.

I got pulled over for that a few years ago. It was pretty funny. I was heading south on this street and at 9 pm got pulled over for speeding. At 3 am the next morning I was heading north and got pulled over directly across the street for blue lights. I'd rock white/amber if you want to be legal.

When I had my EF & had the bluish bulbs in my corner's, I failed inspection b/c tehy were not amber, so it probably depends on your location.

Here in New York even white gets you tickets. ******* ****'s.

If you want clear corners with amber bulbs this guy has bulbs that light up amber but are silver in color:



About 2/3 down this page:

http://autolumination.com/194.htm

194 is the code for our sidemarker bulbs.

I mentioned autolumination bc that guy is really cool and answers emails etc.

good luck.

thats why you use amber with blue LED's toss the amber light on one end of a three way switch and the blue Led's on the other end. than use a clear lense, toss the switche and the amber light switches off and the Blue LED's light up the lenses.

ya blue is definately not legal, and if your car looks ricey at all then you could end up with a bigger ticket than you deserve for something like speeding I have orange (more so than amber) parking lights and white signal lights and I have never had problems with legalities... oh and that whole switch action mentioned erlier sounds cool but I got lost after the first 10 words or so lol.... too complicated.
