Yes, I think red are illegal as you're not allowed to use red lights on the front of a car (to avoid confusion with the rear lights). As far as I know thats the only restricted colour on the front.

are yours the ones with twin 501 bulbs in from mini spares in huddersfield?
if so, you could put one red bulb in the top of both rigns and leave the bottom one standard or a led, would look different to say the least

Completly illegal and your likley to get the book thrown at you to if a copper sees you.

Think about it, your driving down a dark county lane at night and a driver coming the otherway sees redlights...there gonna think its the back of someones car and do something unexpected.
