Euro tail lights
Ordered a set of the AMBER/RED Euro Tail lights today. I noticed that the CLEAR(WHITE)/RED setup is close to $200 less. Anyone know why it would be that much of a difference in price?
The designs are exactly the same, except one is AMBER the other is CLEAR(WHITE).
Puzzling.

No idea Micah. I fitted my ambers back in 06 and the prices were similarly different. $30 for the clears and I paid $300 for my kit with a harness at that time.

I needed ambers to comply with Brit safety regulations. Some guys here have used clears with amber bulbs and got away with it at the vehicle inspection.

For some reason, it has been that way for many years - was like that when I bought my clear/red euros probably 8 years ago. Doesn't make sense to me either.

Well, I was asking to see if anyone knew. I ordered mine (RED/AMBER) and can't wait until I get them installed. I guess it is a mystery we will never know the answer too.

I wanted the cheaper white ones.... 
Goes well with Silver I think.
I put RED LED's in the white part. Can't see anything in there when the car is off, but its a BRIGHT red when I hit the turn signal.
