I prefer amber...but if the car's clean, clear can work.

It looks like you have half clear and half amber.

I say keep them stock because it's illegal to have clear ones. Honda was able to give it clear corners, unlike the Civics, because it put an amber reflector on the bumper. Be happy with that. If you want to mod them, make them blink. I heard Eclipse lights work, but I don't know what generation.

Cloear corners are not illegal. As long as it reflects light, it's acceptable. (At least it's that way in Cali)

As for the clear corners, what are you talking about? The del Sol does not have clear corners, it has orange corners wrapped in clear lenses...just like the Civic does. The only difference is that the Civic's front reflectors are integrated into the corner lights, while the del Sol's are in the bumper.

I'm pretty sure clear is illegal everywhere. Front has to have amber, rear has to have red. That's why the JDM Honda's don't have the reflector incorporated into the tailights.

The del sol does have clear corners. That orange cover does not make it an amber lense. If you have a Civic and buy Euro clears, having an orange bulb doesn't make it non-clear corners.
