clear turn signal legal in florida?

im about to buy these badboys off solaris invisibulbs site and take out my amber corners off of my headlight and i was wondering if it was legal in florida to do that...

also, is it legal to have white turn signals? like xenon

Thanks!

I would think it is illegal to have the turn signals (front) lighted anything other than amber. I know it is illegal in my jurisdiction.

In CA, clear turn signals (lenses) are legal - as long as they illuminate amber, which what the invisibulbs do.

I've never had a problem in 2 years of driving the X around with clear bulbs. ie the stock bulbs behind the amber reflectors. They blink yellow, not really amber though/=.

That is what my fronts are like. I got a set of clear bulbs and they do blink a light amber because of the amber reflector pieces. From the front they are a little more white but nothing that has drawn the attention of The Fuzz.

Personal pet peeve: Any kind of blue LED lights on the front of cars.

There's a confusion here. Lionkang, your setup with the clear bulbs blinking amber is absolutely legal. What the original poster meant is that is it legal for his bulbs to light up white or "xenon"?

The absolute worst are those electric blue light coming from the windshield washing nozzles that you see on Civics and Neons....
