Clear corners, illegal in NJ?

Bummed, but bring on OU!
Technically, clear corners are illegal everywhere in the US, orange bulbs or not, as you are modifying a safety feature. But usually cops don't care.

Here's a site with links to some different state's laws. Looks like you're out of luck in NJ!

bart don't worry about it. no cop in new jersey will ticket you for having clear corners....as long as you have amber bulbs in them. if not, then i can't guarantee anything.

I cant imagine any cop giving you **** about clear corners, they will stop u during the day time for having an air freshner hanging from your rear view as an obstruction before the corners.
Especially if you are crusing with friends at night, they cant even tell what color the corner lenses are.
just dont have the bottom of your car glowing, or having your system cranked all the way and u should be straight

To answer the original question, clear corners are not legal in New Jersey. Whether you get stopped or not is another question. I have been running with no front license plate for almost 2 years( NJ requires front and back) and have never been ticketed.
