Amber Rear Turn Lights

Just doing some research for a '10 order ///


Anyone in the USA order Euro tails to get Amber Turns...

Did a quick search and not seeing much info on anyone running Amber turns in the rear tails. Call me old skool but I much prefer Amber turns over red for tails

show me some love E70 guys. Am I the only one feeling rear amber turns...

I get the whole *red* with celis these they have got going on...and I suppose a white top would kill the flow....but I thought it was mandatory to have amber in the rear over the pond...

I know amber fronts are a requirement.

I have seen crashed EU rear lamp. So the place inside the turn light painted to the green color, but glass inside is red.
I think, if you want to have amber turn lights, you just have to paint light bulbs to green colour.

I'll try to find picture of this crashed X5.

The lower section (same that flashes) is amber in the EU models. Pay someone going overseas to pick them up for you

They are look nearly the same, but in fact they a different. I'm using US X5 in EU. So I can see these differences almost every day
