White or amber...........if you look like a street racer, you'll get a ticket for the white. Why? Because.........white signal lights = streetracer..........every cop knows this.





























just kidding mister police officer.

i got it.. the plate part is only either amber or white..
lucky i asked b4 buying some red bulbs and get pull over..

i just checked the HTA again..
and it said there shouldn't be any red lights in front..
so i guess i shouldn't change those 2 little front parking lights from amber to red then..
well.. maybe i will change it to superwhite anyway..

kewl.. thx guys for da replies..
