if the cop wants to be a prick they can nail you for removing the amber piece. Reason being is that it is a reflector. You must be able to see the car parked at night. Thats why we have those reflectors on our rear bumpers, next to the reverse lights. That is the reason why those first generation totally clear rear tail lights that all the hondas had were illegal; not because they were clear, but because they had no reflectors.

i wasn't talking about aftermarket lenses and not even tail lights at all...this topic is about the reflector in the headlight!
you are right....it is there to be seen at night......my suggestion then would be not to park your car on the road or buy some cheap reflective tape and stick a little piece on the side some where.
like i said import owners have been doing this(homemade mod) for years.
oh, and those taillights were not illegal because of reflector problems....APC never got DOT approval even though they had DOT stamped on them. probably never got approval because of this fact, but that's not the reason they have been recalled.
