I used to have neon inside my car, and I got a $171 ticket for it. The cop told me it'd be too easy to mistake my car for a cop car because my neon is blue, and I wasn't even flashing it or anything. >frown.gif>

No they dont show, but they are still illigal in my state to have them on.
Any lights that are from under your car, or that are a different color than standard outside you car can get you a ticket. Even some colors inside the car can get you in trouble. I have all the lights inside my car blue, and a cop pulled me over for having the dome light on. He said it impersonates a police car. What a crock of BS. Anyway, just be careful while you are driving around cus that is the only time they can get you is while you are moving. If you are stopped in a parking lot or something and have them on they can't do jack.
what do those kits cost???

like $300 bucks?


sounds like a waste of 299 bucks
139 shipped off ebay gold series sick deal. And its not a waist ive already had a blast with them. Even just sitting in a parking lot with them on heh
I used to have those washer LEDS and I did get pulled over for them. The cop just gave me written warning for them and I think that was when I woke up and realized that the lights were rice. So I disconected them and sanded off all the fake chrome paint off of them to make them clear. The worst thing they can give me in Rhode Island is give me a 5 day tag.
yea i got a ticket for my led washers......it was $10 bucks >tongue.gif>
Man, you guys all have it good. Cops are so anal about lighting here. My friend got a $171 ticket for his windshield washer lights too, and I used to get pulled over for stuff like hyperwhite bulbs in my clear corners. I was driving perfectly and everything, but they pulled me over for them. I ended up not getting a ticket though because I cooperated with the officers and let them search my car and stuff.

What really sucks is how crooked our system is around here. Everyone(4 cops, county clerk, even a judge at traffic court) around here says that neon lights are only illegal if they're red or blue, but they just say that so that they can give you a ticket if you have another color of neon, such as yellow. >frown.gif>

Yeah, they are right. Here in VA, you can get pulled over by having them running while driving. But if you run them while sitting parked, they can't do anything.
I got a ticket for yellow underglow - i think it was around 70

Wow. Luckily around Ohio we can drive with them on. Color doesn't even matter. They just can't oscillate or whatever.

Same in SC, as long as they don't flash there's no problem.
