Yeah I feared that, I need to go back to the place I bought them from and ask them for dual white LEDs, the thing is they're not (Blue Blue) but one White LED, and One Blue soldered together , it's still too blue for my tatse, and I agree I don't want a ticket... for marker lights... but then again, I just rolled bye 2 cops this morning, and even stopped bye a motocycle cop the other day to tell him about some deer that were trying to cross the 405

So I think my pasty white boy get out of troubble free card must not have expired yet !

This BTW is all my doing, BananaRE ships his with clear tungsten bulbs...

Yup. Even if the bulb is WHITE when lit. I got in an accident a LONG time ago and had hyper-white bulbs (I know, I know...) in the front markers. At the scene, the cop took the light out of the marker and wrote me a ticket for impersonating a police vehicle. I of course took it to court and lost. The ticket WAS reduced to an inspection violation of some sort though.. It was the most rediculous thing I had ever seen. The light CLEARLY was white when light, but I guess that didn't matter..

I never really understood the ticket.. Yes the bulbs were a blue tint.. But they didn't flash, or spin, AND WERE NOT on the TOP of my car.. Oh well.. Gotta love the law.

Why is there a 4 page thread on turn signals.

Good god you guys like to drag something through the mud and back.

For Christ's sake they're only turn signals people!!!!

That didn't seem to stop you from taking the opportunity to post pictures of your car with these turn signals in several threads lately...

Are you sure you're not just a little upset because you're no longer going to be the only kid on the block who has them?

Where are you guys getting them from? I contacted the RX7store last week. They said they would have the black ones with clear lenses early this week. I called them today and they said maybe later this week. I think this may go on for a while.

To be honest, the lights are a really nice item. Currently the particular picture of them on my car is probably a good representation of them, I think.

I just think it's funny how there is a 4 page thread of pure confusion on something as simple as signal lamps. By confusion I mean people talking about

example person 1: smoke black polish
example person 2: no no no they only come smoke polish but gray
example person 1: you're both wrong chrome clear is the only option
example person 3: do you mean "type b" vs "type s", I think it would be "tighhht" if you could have a "type bs"

They're a really nice looking set of turning lamps, great updated factory like, certified legal lamps. But it's funny to see it get dragged out like this.

Around here, everything gets dragged out like this.

For example, look at the recent thread on the 13B-REW vs. Renesis in the Rotary Performance section...
