i have the piaa hyper whites and they look very very white rather than that beigh color with the clear bulbs. At night you could barely see the tinge of light blue, if you can see it at all. It looks good.

I want to buy the polarg hyper white and just wondering is it visible to see in the day time. When i try to signal it. The second question is; is it against the law to put it on? or it legal to have it on? hmm i like hyoer white color, but just worry that the cop will give me problem. Can anyone help me out?

It's illegal in California to have white light showing for rear turn signals. But legal to have clear front turn signals.
Vehicle code 24953(a) ...

Since it appears you're from CA, I'll give you the rule that applies there--the light coming out of the rear turn signal has to be either red- or amber-colored. You can theoretically still put in a hyperwhite bulb but if it flashes anything other than red or amber, then it's illegal.
