One more ticket won't hurt. Apart from the normal ones like, the car is to low, the mufflers to big, and the illegal HID. One more for illegal tail light won't hurt.

No. You can not have turn signals that are any colour but amber or red.

Put them on when you get the chance to see how they look on with the lights. Personally I like the orange it gives it a classic look to it, and nice to know that an older car woops your *** LoL DIE EURO RICER CIVIC!

clear turn signal lenses are perfectly legal as long as you have an amber bulb. many cars now a days dont have amber any more and just run red or clear lenses on their stock taillights. and if its clear they have an amber bulb and or a little amber cover around where the bulb is.

its legal if the car comes from the factory with clear taillights but if you modify your own lights and change the color its illigal.

I think legality is very different state to state no?

I think the texture looks a little weird in comparison to the brake lights...
