Here in tampa florida cops could give two ***** as long as when you break its red

in bc they dont really care...just make sure the bulbs arent clear.

Call your local DOT.

US DOT states that the REAR has to have red reflectors... so all clears no matter what color they light up are illegal

I don't have clears but my altezzas do not have the red side reflector, I've never had a problem with the MD police or my local HOCOPO. I also have blue reverse lights and clear front side markers, both of which are also a nono . Basicly if you don't give the police a reason to pull you over (i.e. - a moving violation) then you shouldn't have a problem, but then again you may also run into a police officer who decides to enforce the law and write you a ticket. There is a certain amount of risk involved, its just a matter of if you want to take the chance or not.

Since you are in Charles County, they love to pull you over for stupid stuff. I think you are O.K. though

If you REALLY want them, put some red reflective tape on your bumper that will reflect from the side and the back. At least then you can claim you tried to comply and migh get off with a warning.

got my clears in today and was installing them with my freshly purchased red led bulbs... and i had a problem with the red led bulbs... first they dont make reglar ones(well atleast the 2 shops i went to didnt have regular red ones), and second the led bulb sorta got the best of my electrical so now my brake lights dont work (only the 3rd does). and now i got to take it in to the electrical shop tomorrow (and i got work tonight)
