it should be good because isnt the side reflector on the fender?.. ive been away from hondas for awhile.. so long as there is a side marker it should be fine.. oh and visible from x amount of feet during the day... blah

they should be fine but technically they are not legal because they do not have a reflector or a dot approved stamp. oem lights do not need a dot stamp but aftermarket lights need a dot stamp.

but put in an amber bulb and 99.99% of cops will not even look twice at them

WRONG!

all lights on any car have to have a dot# including glass and including aftermarket that want to meet dot requirements (most dont care, no dot3= illegal on streets).... ALL oem lights will have a dot# (all makes all model cars will all have a dot# on all lights)

I've been pulled over and had my car picked apart by a couple texas state troopers. they wrote me up for everything they could and didn't say anything about my lights, I've got the one piece black housing headlights.
