One reason I try to stay clear of Fremont. I get enough crap for my tint and tails the way it is. Officer D!cknose would pull me over in a second... THat fvcker needs to retire so those good drivers with modded cars can feel at ease.

I am sorry but this is completely wrong information you have given. the law infact applies to the color of the reflector lense (and not the color of the bulb). the front side reflectors shouls be amber and rear side reflectors should be red.

Ok so i finally was able to see a judge just a few hours ago, he changed my non-correctable fix it ticket to a fixable one and dropped the fee to $25. I was waiting in line to get into the building at 6.30am i was the 42nd person in line, hope this helps

Bumper lights must be amber or red, but no red lights are allowed towards the front of the car... the only reason clear corners would be illegal is because the reflector isn't there, but I'm not sure it matters here.

I wish it was that easy for me to switch corners. I have to open wheel liner and undo the wire holding the damn light on.

I just don't get why some cops feel the need to bust our ***** about something so insignificant when it comes to actual traffic safety. As long as the side markers are still lit in some fashion then I don't see why it should be a problem. (Unless they are red lights, or green.. or purple.. or ... well you get the point)

If we were to shave off the damn side markers, they would not even hastle us. That would not make it any different that having clear corners. Both would be non OEM...

Because the cops don't get one of those cool clear coners like us, they jealous.

I am in Massachusetts and passed a hidden cop twice in 5 minutes with my clear corner/white led on. He didn't make any move. Or maybe he knows he has no chance to catch up a g35?

But seriously, any New England drivers here has problems with clear corners?

Ok how about this one....


When I found a cop to sign off my fix it ticket when he saw the code for the clear corners he was like WTF is that for. Then i showed him what it was for and he said "dam he really got you." Guess most cops dont they could even issue out a ticket for that
