From the rear pictures, it seems that only red is not covered by the camo. So does this mean no amber turn signals? If so, big disappointment...the RL's taillights were much better.

Seriously? Come on, I think you're computer is too slow and it's red shifting the yellow. ;-)

But really, an all red (re: single color) rear light cluster is stylistically preferable to having multiple colors. And in the real world is works just fine.

Well, stylistically preferable is quite subjective. I for one do not like the all-red clusters.

As to working just fine, every study seems to indicate the amber signals work better. NHTSA says over 5% better and Europe mandates it anyways, so might as well go amber.

A less scientific poll on my friends says anyone who is a car guy in my circles complains about the all red signals as well.
