yeah in cali they recommend that you use only yellow bulbs when converting to clear lenses, thats what i have

yellow bulbs maybe not look all that hot for osme people but on mine i love the look, i might throw in the stock ambers with yellow bulbs to get that ultimate amber effect, but i think it depends on the cop and who is pulling you over, some rookies will pull you over for that shit but the veterans will not cause that is wasting time, the rookies do it to meet their quota, and if you ask a cop that all your doing is making your quota he will tell you he does not have one that is bullshit, i know the cheif of police for san jose and he told me specifically that all cadets and rookies and young cops have quotas, the 10 yered officers get off with the quota from what i understood from him

my choice i would go with a orange bulb or a yellow bulbs

i have blue headlights, blue corners, and purple blinkers.. flash them in front of cops all the time, never got pulled over. i'm pretty sure cops have better things to do in SoCal then to pull over people for having blue lights... ... .. atleast here in seattle they do.

Maryland allows white, yellow, or amber. I have amber. dajuice27 used to have PIAA Extreme Whites (or similar PIAA bulb) until he sold his CL!!!!! NOMAD had yellow bulbs in his CL (before he traded his)!!!



TRADERS!!!!!!!!!! :P

Same here, except my blinkers are blue to go with the rest of the light setup. Cops have never fucked with me about it. Probably cuz so many people have em nowadays.

I should receive my clears any day now. I'm definetly going for the amber bulbs because of the look. It's just matter of my opinion...

The issue with the clears is that the stocks had a yellow reflector built into the side - take the stocks off and you have no yellow visible from the side (or at all I guess), which is usually required by law. I have an amber bulb in mine and you can definitely see it, but I have a feeling if a cop was trying to give me a real hard time he could call me on it...
