I want clear corners but...
I don't know if it's legal where I live. Of course I'm gonna put an amber bulb in.
I tried googling it, but had no luck.
Any help is appreciated of course!
I live in Ontario, Canada.

I wouldn't see it being a problem as long as you have an amber bulb in

I just don't want to risk a ticket / warning.
I'm gonna be getting a used set of headlights to do this with. |

The orange plastic is the only reflector on the front of the car, which is required by law, so unless you add reflectors somewhere else on the front you can get a ticket. I only got warned about it once while going through a checkstop, and I had white bulbs.
Also, if you get into an accident at night, lack of reflectors can be raised as a possible fault on your part.

That's why I said I would be using amber lights and not white.
I looked at the Highway Traffic Act, and just basically says that their must be amber on the front and red on rear, nothing about it being a reflector.

i live in st. catharines, ontario, canada, and i cleared my corners and tinted my tails and havent had a problem yet 
i just threw some stealth bulbs in the corners, drive right past cops and ive never had an issue, i talked to an officer and you just have to have a different colour light for your indicator, for indication of turning, thats all.
anyways just my .02  |

I'm pretty surre you need a reflector. In Minnesota you are required to have them. Not sure about Canadian laws though. You could always go down to your local police station and ask an officer about it.

HAd them on my car for about 7 years now and the cops in the burbs break balls for window tint. Plus PA has one of the most strict inspection laws in the country (next to Cali)
But yeah, get your hand on a used set and do it to them. That's what I did, but I'm thinking of doing it now to my stockers since my used ones are showing their age

Please disregard this thread now.
I talked to several safety guys at the dealership I work at, several techs, and a salesman at an aftermarket part shop. I am able to do it with no problem.
