Thanks, I was unaware of the regulation. Lol my current clear corners don't have any reflector...

Basically the same as what you got, without the amber. Sorry for the thread highjack.
I've got those, but with a projector strapped in the middle of them. I've never had any trouble from the 5-0 about the reflector, and I've got white running lights as well.

If you find two identical units from the same seller, usually they will put "free shipping" but jack up the base price and vice versa. But I like buying the "free shipping" models because the seller has to pay eBay percentage on his sales, not his shipping

Yeah don't expect too much hassle. As long as you don't have blue lights or something cops usually won't care.

Finally bit down and spent the cash. Ordered the same lights and upgraded my bulbs to the ultras. Like the look alot haven't had the chance to drive it at night yet but looking forward to it. While i had this all apart i went a step further and pulled the grill (with out breaking the tabs!) and painted it flat black, matches the lights much better. Pics to come. Thanks for the info!

Nice! Did you pop the metal clips on the lights off?
