And that's the crazy thing, European manufacturers actually incur EXTRA COST to have red rear turn signals. I just don't get it. |
I believe the cost are the same or not that much more to produce either amber or red color light output.
The light itself is originally red but they add a green optical filter to produce the color amber, meeting ECE/ROW requirements.
