I spoke to a guy who has done State safety inspections  in Vermont for 
years. He said that the Federal requirements for  the color  of lens changed a 
few times over the years as additional lights were  added......directional  
signals, side marker lights, back-up lights,  etc..
 
He said technically, for a car to pass the present  State safety 
inspection, lights are supposed to meet the standards that  were in effect when 
the 
car was built.  All original lights have to work  and if the owner has added 
any lights they also have to  work.
If the owner installed lights don't work and the owner  doesn't want to 
repair them, he can remove them.
 
You don't have to add lights that were never original  to the manufactured 
car......for example a Tiger wouldn't need back-up lights  even though they 
are required on modern  cars.
 
And you can't change the color of the original  lens.  (Of course how many 
inspectors would know the original  color;-)
