Yep, they're legal, at least here in Washington. You just have to have amber or white bulbs in there(and by white I mean no blue trace at all, so no hyperwhite.)

New Toyota project coming soon...
depends on your state,
in cali white is not even legal.

but most people get away with them.

Nope. In Cali white IS legal- however, white sidemarkers are NOT legal

From the CHP website: (http://www.chp.ca.gov/html/streetlegal.html)

QUOTE
Incorrect color of turn signal. It must be white or yellow to the front, red or yellow to the rear (24953 VC).


QUOTE
Illegal color of side marker lights. If present, must be yellow in the front and red in the rear (25106, 24003 VC).


So, its the clear sidemarkers they get u for.
why do we even need sidemarkers? looking around at most cars they have nothing of the sort except for a select few....

The more lights on your car the better. the more rallyish it is >wink.gif>
i think side markers are for when you want to change lanes. the car next to you can see your side markers blinking.. kind of a bonus safety features. You can ussually find them on expencive cars like beamers.
Of course, ours don't blink
