Default clear euro blinker with stock bulbs

If I use the stock bulbs with a set of euro corner blinkers will the cops bug me? And does anyone know what kind of fine or punishment will be for the Maryland area? Thanks.

My theory is, if people don't get pull over for not signaling a turn, I shouldn't get pull over for having signal with my euro blinker.

yeah, that would avoid any trouble
i have white in mine and I haven't had any problems.
the rule is : white, amber, or red for front turn signals.

I like to have the clean look of the euro blinker at night, that's why I want to stick with the stock bulbs. The set I order already have the amber bulbs, but if white is legal, I will definatly stay with white.

since stock bulbs are white, they aren't legal.

I thought "the rule is : white, amber, or red for front turn signals." - turbothisls.

legal or not, just get some amber bulbs man. the cleanest look u can have

IMO white bulbs in clear lenses looks tacky... it looks like you just got some clears and didnt bother buying amber ones (or 'hYpa bLuE j0')

also, its illegal to have red lights on the front of the car. (my buddy got pulled over for it)

edit :: also, you can have a white bulb in the turn signal but it has to have at least one amber reflector in it or its illegal.

while u all are on the topic of turn signals i got some questions:

Im wanting my turn signals to have that brightass yellow look (like on bmws) to go with HIDs. Are there any companies producing this color bulb?

also.. i would need clears for it to look right, but i dont like how clears look on a white integra (too washed out). Is there some kind of shiny transparency paint i can paint on half the blinker?

thanks!
