![Question](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
I want to buy bulbs for all the lights on my TL (front cleared turn signals, highbeams,
sidemarkers, Inspire rear turn signals).
What are the bulb code for each so I know what bulb to look for?
BTW, I am looking for superwhites or blue light output. Which brand is good and where can I get them for cheap?
Thanks!

does anyone know if those type of lights (blue ones for high beam and sidemarker) are legal? I really like the looks of those lights but the cops around here are very picky and I don't want to get a ticket for them.

It varies form State to State but in NY you can not put red, green, or blue lights in the front of your car. Even if your headlights are too blue, it's illegal but I don't think many cops have the meter to test the lights.
Plus since when does anyone see your high-beams anyway. That would put them coming towards you, and uh.... hello?
Side markers (corner signals) must be reflective in order to be DOT legal. Tail lights too. The Inspire tails are legal because of it reflectivity. Clear corners don't have that. So in essence they are not DOT approved although again, as long as your signal is amber/yellow it's pretty much "street legal" unless the cop has a hard-on for you.

But don't our lights have reflectors in them for the sides? So if I put the blue bulb in there wouldn't it actually reflect as amber because of the relfector. Besides, I thought those blue bulbs put out a superwhite light rather than a bluish color.

I thought that streeteffects posted something in another thread that he has polargs that you can buy from him for the sidemarkers. Not sure about the rear turn signals thou. I'm going to wait and get the 2002 lights.
