I have the APC Titan's too. I was trying to find the post, because I put pics up a couple years back.

They're still going strong, and look great.

I also bought mine off CarDomain

i have chrome turn signal bulbs that light up amber. you remember, i know i totally showed you at the spring photo shoot. i knew that you were uber impressed and jealous from the moment i hit the unlock button on my key and made them blink!

I'm in MD/VA I highly doubt any other color than amber is legal but I don't really care about that.

I don't want them to go crazy fast so I guess the LED option is out cos for such a small mod to buy 3 different items sounds too much trouble. hehe

I guess what drax has will do..

Thanks everyone =D

Yes, Maryland law states that turn signal lights can only be amber. Although, I have seen other, non-rice cars (BMW's, etc.) that have clear signal lenses with clear, white bulbs. So I mean, I guess if a cop is having a bad day or just wants to be a dick, they will pull you over. As long as the turn signal isn't obnoxsiously bright it should be cool.

haha, well if you SEE a cop. Dont use your turn signals! Just use hand signals...

hahaha. but most cops wont pull you over for it, unless they are suspicious of you (i.e. DUI, Stolen Vehicle etc...) then it gives them probable cause to pull you over and investigate a little more.

I have 2 blue led blinkers for either side. They blink way too fast and I am getting cut off at four way stops during the day because you can't see them. It happens so often that I avoid turning left at a four way if I can. So yeah, chrome bulbs with amber light, here I come.

And I'm pretty sure its illegal. And I'm pretty sure they are too ricey. And I'm pretty sure that when people give you the finger when they cut you off, its no good.

I don't know how to tell, but I do know when they sent me a replacement bulb it was just 1 "bulb". I didn't look at it closely enough to see if it was multiple led's inside the bulb. I forgot to mention that I dont have stock headlights, but the KKO angel eyes.

Sap, careful about the placement of those resistors. They tend to get really really hot and can melt plastic.
