    Any color other than orange for a turn signal light is illegal. If you have white you may get away with it, but flashing blue is a big no no, so is red in the front.

    Thse ones you posted from ebay are only singal filiment though so they wont work on your corners. You need a double filament.

    I may get some of those, but I prefer white. mabey yellow. I just dont like having my whole ligh housing glow blue from my hyper white signal lights.
