Question Shaved side marker?

Ok, I've searched the site and was unable to find anything on this. I'm interested in having the sidemarker blinkers shaved off, but I dont know if this would be legal.

I know we need them because currently our US headlight blinkers are centered up front on both sides of our grills. I was wondering if I installed the JDM headlights, which have a blinker that wraps around from the front to the side of the headlight, if it would be possible to then get rid of the sidemarker.

Anybody else already do this? I'd really hate to shave them off and then find out I can't pass inspection or something.

well just to let you know, the side marker is really needed.
the jdm headlight maybe at the side corner, but when it blink
it only blink in the front. so people from the side wont see it still

well Zoo...ur ride is all hooked up~! If a cop saw it going down the street, she/he'd probably wouldn't notice a missing side marker or ur 3rd brake light. He/She probably would just be like "daaaamn nice ride." Then pull u over just to see wut's under the hood

Just go PIAA hyper white all around.. Bad idea not to have them..merging on freeway people next to you can't see blinkers without them...
