Adr Approved - Is It Important?

[GTR91]

Slowly going about modding the 260RS. Little things along the way of building my dream vehicle, and I decide that the orange side blinkers have to go.

So I decide that I'll go with a nice set of Nismo smoked colour side indicators. Long story short, I was told that as far as mods go, I could choose between orange or clear Nismo side indicators, and the smoked colour version was NOT ADR approved.

Is this a big thing? I mean this ADR business. Do the colour of the side indicators matter? If I go with smoked, what can happen? I've tried some online searching and it all seems a little vague. Plenty of people are using smoked colour indicators without getting done by the cops. Yet it is stated that it does not meet ADR approval.

Really want the smoked indicators, but am a little iffy about this ADR approved business ....

Your thoughts?

Told by whom?

just get the clear ones, i think they look better on a silver car than the smoked ones anyway.

i regards to ADR approved items, obviously the more ADR legit things you put on your car the less trouble you can get in with the authorities, be it the cops, department of transport or your insurance company. i'd start buy getting into contact with the department of transport in your state and getting a real answer on if you can have them or not.

indicators must show orange when operated, which is why factory are tinted orange and clear ones use orange globes. the smoked ones are forwned upon because they reduce the orange and brightness. smoked look pretty average anyway - go clear
