From what I've read in some of the CVC (Cali VC) literature that's online, we are allowed ONLY either amber or clear bulbs for the front corner markers/turn blinker bulbs. I had Polarg M14's for mine for almost 2 years and not a single problem with cops reguarding them, even when flashed in their face. They DID have a problem with my superwhite Polarg sidemarker bulbs however and told me they could only be amber color. That was just once from a CHP officer, but she only gave me a verbal warning about it, and it wasn't the reason she pulled me to begin with. But once I got my CTR housings, I wanted a totally seemless and original JDM look to things, so I opted for SilverStar all around at the front (legal but different H4 headlight bulbs, and amber color corner blinker and side marker bulbs).

The only H3 bulbs I have are my foglights. They use H3's Right now I have your average Sylvania OEM replacement type H3 bulbs in it. If they made (or I could find) SilverStar version H3's I'd put those in instead. Since the lense glass to the fogs are blue tinted anyways, they give off a pretty near HID look to them, so I'm not so worried about changing them right now. The PIAA S/P GT-X's I can get from Inline Four for about $65 plus tax, and so because of the such inexpensive price on them, that's the only reason why I'd like to try them out. Plus I'm sure they may be more of the look I'd like to have with my headlights. Also just like SilverStars, the PIAAs are DOT legal as well.
