Is there any legality issues with blackhousing or cleared corners (no amber piece)?? I think I heard someone telling me once about how you're technically supposed to have an amber corner? I would assume that there's nothing against blackhousing.

you're supposed to have the amber because it has the reflective surface of the amber piece. But it really matters where you live. In SoCal a cop would spend 10 mins trying to find every little thing like that to give us a ticket but i think you're fine in Pennsylvania..lol

just make sure the front turn signal bulb itself lights up amber (not red or blue or anything else)

I had no issues with mine. They fit perfectly. Even were high enough quality to still have those little levels inside of them. The stamping said "Depo" and they make good lights. I will find the link for the buyer I got mine from hang on...

edit: seller was makotoautotrends but he doesn't have any listed right now.
