From what I can find, all new led bumper lights/turn signals have a mix of amber and white leds and I want some with all white. I hate amber!
Does anyone know if anybody sells them this way anymore? I've searched just about the entire internet to no avail... :throw:
I'm going to have a little front end make over this spring and these would really help.

Oh btw, not just led bulbs but the whole housing. Similar to these but without the amber leds. Sans reflector would be awesome as well.

Interesting... definitely "off road use only" (not street legal) but no idea how they don't have amber reflectors or amber turn signals. Those are both a requirement to drive on the streets in the USA

I've had clear lights without any amber reflectors and white lights for years and haven't had a problem. I'll probably get pulled over the day I put these on...

I know in California its legal to run white running lights and white turn signals, yellow is an option but not a requirement, look at all the bmws and audis with. The only differnce is for audis and bmws the turn signal is yellow.

i have the orange led bumper lights but i think either one looks good. Check out polobuds white led bumper lights

I like the amber ones you posted first actually. You need some amber in your turn signal regardless of what state you are in. Most say than can be clear as a running light, but must omit amber when signaling a turn.

Turn Signal Lamps. 24953. (a) Any turn signal system used to give a signal of intention to turn right or left shall project a flashing white or amber light visible to the front and a flashing red or amber light visible to the rear.

good try but keep going with that law...

California Vehicle Code Section 24953: Turn Signal Lamps.
(a) Any turn signal system used to give a signal of intention to turn right or left shall project a flashing white or amber light visible to the front and a flashing red or amber light visible to the rear.
(b) Side-mounted turn signal lamps projecting a flashing amber light to either side may be used to supplement the front and rear turn signals. Side-mounted turn signal lamps mounted to the rear of the center of the vehicle may project a flashing red light no part of which shall be visible from the front.
(c) In addition to any required turn signal lamps, any vehicle may be equipped with supplemental rear turn signal lamps mounted to the rear of the rearmost portion of the driver's seat in its rearmost position.
(d) In addition to any required or authorized turn signal lamps, any vehicle may be equipped with supplemental rear turn signal lamps that are mounted on, or are an integral portion of, the outside rearview mirrors, so long as the lamps flash simultaneously with the rear turn signal lamps, the light emitted from the lamps is projected only to the rear of the vehicle and is not visible to the driver under normal operating conditions, and the lamps do not project a glaring light.


So any side marker has to be amber. So that corner light needs to be an amber LED.


And it can flash white or amber, but you still have to have a yellow reflector

That makes sense, my mistake.

I wasn't trying to start a legal debate, just trying to find some lights.

I just did a test fit with the depo projectors and the new bumper lights to make sure everything worked, and everything seemed to work just fine. I didn't mess with the adjustment of the headlights but read where they will adjust to fit the grill better. Anyway, here are a few before and after comparisons and yes, my hood fits like crap and the bumper has a crack in it. All part of the spring makeover that I'm hoping to get straightened out pretty soon.

The clear plastic is still on the headlights as well. No need to take it off since this was all just a test fit.

After Off

Looks great i really like the clean look of it. Can you take a picture of both your headlights, im curious to see how it looks in all. Also do you have a link to the seller you go them from, i like how they are actually white to not blueish white.

I only put one side in to make sure everything worked and then took them back out until I get all of my other parts. That way everything will be new with the mini makeover later this spring.

I did take two other pictures with the headlights on but that's all I have. I wish I would have taken more.

None of the bulbs necessarily match either. In fast, the one in the projector is clear while the others have a little blue to them in person.

Geez, TYF is getting tough now - a -days


But looks really good. I just installed those same exact ones in my friends silver tahoe and looks stunning.

Wish they made them in black housing.
