Side Repeater Bulbs - have to flash orange?
Evening all, fitted some crystal clear side repeaters and front indicators that i got off ebay at the weekend.
I was supplied with amber bulbs for each item but the 2 W5W amber bulbs i got free with the side repeaters didnt work - so i had to re-fit the standard clear bulbs. Now the repeaters flash a nice bright white colour.
But i was wondering if this was legal or not, as i thought your side-lights were supposed to flash amber for some reason? Is this ok or should i get some amber glowing ones?
If its OK as it is, would the car pass its MOT? Would be a real bummer failing the car cause of some poxy bulbs!!
Thanks
Adam
