Switchbacks with white DRL's
Am I the only one who would like to see a vendor produce a set of switchback DRL's that are white in DRL mode instead of yellow (but still flash yellow when turn signals activated of course)?

Can you elaborate on the reliability issue?
I'm assuming the LED's used would not change so the only component difference would involve the switching logic (having the white LED's light when the headlights are off).

Here is the LAW, from the State of Texas website:
http://www.statutes.legis.state.tx.u...htm/TN.547.htm
==========
Sec. 547.324. TURN SIGNAL LAMPS REQUIRED....
(d) A turn signal lamp shall emit:
(1) a white or amber light, or a color between white and amber, if the lamp is mounted on the front of the vehicle; or
(2) a red or amber light, or a color between red and amber, if the lamp is mounted on the rear of the vehicle.

Amazing since it was a state inspection tech at the local oil change place who told me that amber lights were required.
Regardless, would still like to maintain the amber light for turnsignal use if at all possible.

The amber turn signals are much easier to see then the white ones. I just hate orange DRLs.

I was just gonna use em but for sure the Leds will look sharp. do ya get em at Vatozone or ya order them online?
I also swapped out the foglights from the yellowish stock to the silverstar hyperwhites-they look sick. they dont look as good as the Hid mod but again I had a pair of the blubs sitting around so why not. They are $40 for the pair if you wanna go in that direction.
I took a picture of side comparision but the camera couldnt pick up the difference in white lights so the blubs looks the same so I didnt see any reason in posting the pix......$40 bux camera FTW
