Amber reflectors
Hello Scionlifers,
I was thinking about putting in some clear corners in my headlights, but I don't want to be doing anything illegal. I was under the impression that cars had to have amber reflectors up front until my friend (G35 Coupe, the lucky bastard) said that wasn't true.
So while skimming through Vehicle Code Division 12
I found this:
The tC is only 69.1 inches, so I shouldn't be breaking any laws right?
But according to the CHP website (more skimming):
But if they're 'clear corners,' the technically aren't reflectors right?
Maybe I'm just naive and don't appreciate the complexity of the CA Vehicle Code. Any input would make me smile.

I found this:
25100. (a) Except as provided in subdivisions (b) and (d), every vehicle 80 inches or more in overall width shall be equipped during darkness as follows:
(2) At least one amber side-marker lamp on each side near the front and at least one red side-marker lamp on each side near the rear.
(2) At least one amber side-marker lamp on each side near the front and at least one red side-marker lamp on each side near the rear.
But according to the CHP website (more skimming):
Illegal color of side marker lights. If present, must be yellow in the front and red in the rear (25106, 24003 VC).
