Default Would these be street legal in Ontario?

I live in Ontario and was wondering if these parking light housings would be street legal. I was sure I read that they had to be the standard orange, but I see so many people plunking in those LED lights into their turn signals, I don't know what to believe anymore. Here's the link:

I don't see why it wouldn't be ok. I think if people start getting into the EXACT shade of color to put on the front or back, that's being a little too picky. As long as you can tell that it's orange/amber, and not red, blue, violet, pink, green, whatever, then I don't see the problem. Of course I'm not the law

hey dude another canadian here... they will be fine. as long as the blinkers blink amber really u won't have an issue. i had a mustang before that had clear coners and just had amber bulbs inside and it worked fine no issues with the law. im planning on putting clear corner/blinkers on my dak as well this spring and should be fine. jonnymagnum also had some clear ones on his dak for a long time so im sure yours being amber in actual color will be fine. hope helps lata.

they look like stock to me?

but I had clear corners on mine with just the stock clear bubls in them. then I switched to white LED's and still had no problem with the cops. the only thing I ever had problems was with my black out tail light covers. so I bought a set of the clear smoked tails and put red led's in them.

I still have my stock 15" rims that were on my truck, and a SS roll pan with a hidden hitch if you want them
