There ya go! Just a little side note; the cops where I live don't like the blue LEDs or white LEDs for that matter. I got a warning for the blues, then when I switched to white LEDs, I got pulled over because he thought they looked to close to blue and had to pay for the Aveo to go through an inspection for eighty bucks. Just keep that in mind. I mean I put mine right back in after the inspection and it looks great for night photo shoots.

In certain States Blue is Illegal, and Red can be questionable.

I turned my dummy lense into another sidemarker/parking light.

Was gonna do LED's, but decided to toss some 194 Amber bulbs to match the blinkers near the front doors.

Oh bleh. This was going to be one of my next tasks. I was going to stick blue ones in there. Maybe I better rethink that.
I'm sure there are other things they could pull people over for

Anyone know of a list somewhere that states what color bulbs are 'allowed' and what aren't?

Someone sent me this link for tint levels allowed (US) http://www.iwfa.com/iwfa/Consumer_Info/ ... elaws.html

I should put that link into the "how to" section.

i ran blue leds in my dead lenses for almost a year here in IL with 0 probs from police, also went WI a few times with them and WI state patrols love to pull u over for anything.

Technically, you can not have blue or red light visible from the front of your car. Now whether you get pulled over or not is another case but yes, they can pull you over.

I was poking around on line and found something that said if the bulbs 'mimic emergency vehicles' then they're illegal.

I couldn't find anything to the contrary about actually having 'city lights' out here. Technically you're not altering the actual headlamp itself so I guess they can't say anything during inspection.

i've been running blue leds in mine for almost a yr. and no problems. and i would have thought i would since i did a lot of driving in CT and RI where they'll pull u over for anything, and i've done a lot of things to my car that are considered illegal modifications, so either cops let it slip or they really don't wanna pull u over for dumb citations
