    Pangit ang lalabas if you paint them kasi dilaw ang lens ng L300. Ganun ginawa sa Volks ng lolo ko. Medyo corny ang resulta.

    Also, sa likod lang pwede ang pulang signal lamp. Sa harap dapat dilaw iyan.

    Sa U.S. ok lang kung amber or red ang signal lamp mo. Nasanay na kasi sila na iisa lang ang tail, brake at signal lamp sa likod (tipid! hehehe). Sa ibang markets kailangan talaga amber ang turn signals (kaya converted ang ilaw ng mga Corvette at Jeeps sa Japan).

    European makes even go one step further by using separate lamps for the brake lamps and the taillamps. Research has shown kasi that the increased brightness when combined with a change in the actual physicall pattern of the taillamps can dramatically reduce incidents of rear end collisions.

    If you grab a copy of "Philippine Road Regulations" at National bookstore, you'll find that its illegal to put ANY red light in the vehicle's front.


    .............but of course we're in the Philippines... anything's legal. But if you must paint, try to use the lens paint spray found in concorde. Made in germany pa yun. special acrylic paint.

    but if i were you, di ko na pakikialaman yan :D

    I second the motion!

    Red lights are forbidden sa front ng sasakyan to eliminate confusion kung which end of the vehicle you are looking at when its dark and rainy. Also, red is the color that is most visible when visibility is poor. Its easy to see but its difficult to see with it.. that's why nobody sells red flashlights.

    Pero since hindi nga strict ang implementation, I've seen some cars with red signal lights sa front and they look ugly.

    Yung Philippine Road Regulations book, meron bang free copy niyan online ?

    ;)

    Since nabanggit mo rin ito, I'd like to share an experience that I almost made a head-on collision with a car that has red park and signal lights. I mistook it for his rear tail lights. Deym! To say, hindi naka on ang kanyang headlights para nga naman makita yung red parklights inside his headlight housing. Panigurado babakat sa mukha nya tatak ng front bumpers ko. :D

    hagiber:: di ko lang sure kung meron. try mo www.lto.gov.ph

    pero oks na rin yung sa National.... 150 lang dati. it's useful coz you could use it to argue against your favorite MMDA traffic enforcer.

    Jon:: Dati nauso yan diba? I mean spraypainting clearance lamps red. Ewan ko ba? hehe :D

    Yup, dati na uso ito at ewan ko kung sino engot ang nakapag-isip na maglagay ng pula sa harap. Rather dumb thinking in their part I should say. Lalo na sa rural highways di mo alam kung kasalubong mo o sinusundan mo yung nasa harap.
