Clear side bumper lenses
 
What's involved in putting these in to replace the amber ones? Is there a procedure posted anywhere?

its simple. The ones you get will probably fit the sedan better, than coupe. they just pop out on pop back in.

do clear lenses affect state inspection? it seems to me only the bulb wouldn't pass, not the lens.

take a lighter to the sedan version and bend out the bracer and extend it and then fit like a charm.

I had clear corners on my integra with clear bulbs and I had no problem... that was in MD though.

They will and won't. I had my state inspection last week. All they guy did was check emissions. Some shops don't care and some do. But to be safe you can get an amber bulb to put in it. that makes it perfectly legal. Evosport has whats called silvervision bulbs. When they are off they look like regular white bulbs, but when you turn them on they shine orange. Very cool looking.

I also used a very fine bead of silicone to make the housing water tight. Silicone will not harm the part and is easy to take off and apply.

That's OK. I have a C320 Wagon.
