Yup Andrew that's exactly what I was looking for, but that's a chop right? Those arent't avail yet, if so not in the U.S.?

I'll agree with Chuck C. Now that I know what clear corners are, I think I'll stick with the stock lights.

It adds character... like a gap-tooth smile

I think that the amber color also adds a lot to safety and that is why clear corners are illegal in lots of places! I defn dont think the cts would be very safe with white turn signals!

From what I understand, if you get clear corners, the bulbs have to be amber, so turns signals will still show up as yellow when engaged. I think it's more about personal taste.

Yep, that's a chop. I haven't seen any places with them yet.

An amber bulb is a must, else it'll be impossible to see in the day.

Most cars have clean foglights, and with the amber it is easy to tell a CTS from a mile away!!!!

Most people use amber bulbs as mentioned in a previous post.

If you can see the color of the lense a mile away...

If you can't tell it's a CTS from a mile away...

Nevermind.

I hate to say it, but you guys loving the amber lenses sound like old men. I think the clear corners look slick. The idea isn't to draw attention to the signal lights, but rather to smooth the look of the car. Don't let the big yellow crap dominate the design of the car.

My 2 cents.

Jeremy
