Color sidemarkers

since one of my sidemarkers are out, I was thinking about changing them to a different color (right now they're white with a hint of yellow bulbs) and was curious if people use super white led bulbs and if they've gotten pulled over for them or not. Cause I can't decide if I want super white or stick with amber to be on the safe side.

I had superwhite leds in my clear sidemarkers and never got pulled over for over 2 years. I actually ended up taking the sidemarker bulbs out altogether because I like the way it looks without sidemarker lights.

lol or i can introduce you to my friend who did mine but it won't be free. its a lot of work. but pretty much i had 2 friends that helped me. one to solder all the leds and one to open and drill and solder the rest of the stuff. the first friend didn't make solid solders so it just broke overtime of driving, but my friend is gonna make sure the 2nd time around will be good.
