Well, for the 194, the side bulbs on the tail lights, I put in PIAA Super Plasma 194s. They are pretty white as well as bright. And going on the freeway today, I didn't see one car with white rear lights, here in WA.

Thus, does anyone know the legality of having white rear lights? The PIAAs are pretty damn bright and I really don't wanna get pulled over for BS reasons. Enclosed is a picture in case I am not explaining clearly enough. Thanks for the help guys. I did do a search but couldn't find info on the white lights on tail lamps.

I don't have any bulbs at all on my side markers for my rear. My brother's honda has super white for his rear side marker so do many cars and they are fine over here in Mass. You should be fine, I just think they would look better without any at all IMO.

oh you are talking about the reflectors? if you have orange bulbs in your signals then those reflectors are infact legal.. actually you could turn them off.. if you wanted to

I have alot of friends with Hondas that have superwhite sidemarker and haven't gotten pulled over yet. I think it's almost the same as the front side marker. Do you have superwhites in the front too?

sprintmax: i mean did you get pulled over for having rear white light

amixam98: I have regular orange front lenses, tho I got Polarg super bright + rewired 30w superwhite corners, I've never had a problem with cops pulling me over for that.

Test Forum puremax? If you want to play it safe, use red polargs or not have any bulbs at all.

Well, I do have red Polargs, just the 194s (the side of the tail lamp) are super white. When I signal, it blinks red, not white...

When determining whether or not you'll be pulled over for the "nitpick" violation. My cousin was pulled over for having white sidemarkers in Seattle, WA. If you're in the greater Seattle area, why give the police any extra reason to pull you over (even if they just give you a verbal warning it's a waste of time and an aggrevation).

I suggest putting red bulbs in there or putting back those red reflectors. I think it looks pretty pathetic with red tails but then the hint of white just looks totally off.

i didn't remove no red reflectors. anyways, thanks for the info guys, I appreciate it.

I cleared my tails and then was pulled over by the Arizona DPS. I got a fixit ticket for having my reverse lights on while in foreward motion. I pulled out the white bulbs. Problem solved.
