laws on clear corners in NS? (any?)
Thursday, May 19, 2005 10:50 AM
hi!, do any of you know if there are any laws against the use of clear corners in Nova Scotia? and if i was to use clear corners would it be safer to use amber bulbs inside the clear lenses rather than the clear ones? or would it matter?

Thanks!

clear corners are fine as long as there is an amber bulb in there. I find that the cops don't really bother you about it though if you don'e have amber bulbs.

if your gonna have to put an amber bulb, what's the point? they factory ones (at least on my 01 cav) are already pretty much clear with amber bulb

yeah i kinda figured you'd need an amber bulb in there... they seem pretty strict about stuff here so i kinda figured.. i just dont see many 2nd gen cav's with clear corners around my area, figured it would be somethin at least a little different

thanks for the replies!

actually i talked to a guy in town who drives a neon, he runs green bulbs and has never been pulled over for them, cops just tell him how unique it looks i'm going to be running ultra Violet Ultra bright LED's just as long as they are CLEARLY not red or blue, then you're good

Sylvania also makes a bulb that is clear when unlit and amber when lit to keep things legal and looking smooth when not using your turn signals

I've gone through multiple road checks and been pulled over 4 times (speeding).
Only issue I had had was one tough guy who didn't like my blue license plate cover. Says since I'm from N.S and the plate numbers are blue, it can be hard to read.
Never had any issues with my clear corners and I use Eurolite hyperwhite bulbs (bulb itself is blue in color, but flash white)

Seems like there's tons of cars and trucks out there now with clear corners direct from the factory; bulbs are either red, amber or clear (reverse), but still all factory, so I can't see where it would be an issue.

review the law... as far as I know it's not against it, and if they fine you you need to bring a copy of your local legistlation on it with you, if they were white red or blue, thats your deal, but if they were green purple ect, you shoudlnt' have had a problem... if I ever get pulled over for something like that I'll be sure to have the law on it with me so I can tell them to shove their fine before they give it to me...
