Red is fine. Its illegal if your turn signals are hyperwhited, because its too similar to reverse lights.

Cops tail me quite a bit for my white signals, I keep the ambers in my glove box just in case I do get stopped. I have inspection this month too, which means I will have to put them in for a few minutes...

Hrmm.. forgot the price, but its around 5-7 dollars for 1 side of the reverse lights. I forgot how much the license plate lights were, but they were around that price range too. Yeah, I'll go and check the prices and take pictures this weekend and post them up. Did you want to have a minimeet this weekend? I think Mu9enx is down. hah
