That's pretty cool. do u have pics of it with the head lights on at night? Aren't these things extremely bright dead on?? You could also try putting some on the frame toward the wheels to shed light though the wheels from the back side (big shiny wheels on the mustang??)

I am in Mass and i am riding a fine line on state roads i can not have them on but on town roads i can. i have talk to 2 cops in the family about them and both of them said that they would not stop me just for the lights but if i was speeding or some thing less they would tack it on at the end any way it is a $75 fine and if i did even get stopped i would play dum and say i did not know about it and turn them off and hope for the best

It looks good and I would like to know how you put that together.
When did green lights become illegal? This country is becoming more and more like "Animal Farm". I wonder what's next to become illegal?

Some states use white and red for FD, others all red, others blue and red, and I think Canada even reserves purple for some applications.
Here in CA I can run amber and white to the front and amber, white and red to the rear, but no red to the front and no blue at all. I can run green if I am the IC on scene but once someone with more experience than I have (pretty much any paid responder) I have to turn them off.
It isn't a law for the sake of a law, it is for the public to identify (AND GET OUT OF THE WAY FOR) first responders and to identify each other on scene. If you are the one in trouble and we are trying to get to you before you bleed out, you would be cursing us for not making more laws to get to you faster.

FYI, different states have different rules. Green in most current iterations is for emergency management - it denotes an Incident Commander vehicle/location or an OES vehicle. Some states combine green with white and red on FD apparatus.
Some states use white and red for FD, others all red, others blue and red, and I think Canada even reserves purple for some applications.

I'm not surprized that these things are happening but it seems that soon the various state governments will outlaw those same colors from use in flashing signs that can be seen from the street. California will likely lead the way on that!

What I would REALLY like to see them do is regulate those video signs. There is one off of US 50 at Folsom that doesn't dim at night - no road lighting and no development, so it's pitch black until you hit the sign. I have actually seen a driver blinded and spin out on the freeway doing 65 and hit the center divide. How something that bright can be legal defies explanation.

Also, in some counties all freeway-side billboards are illegal.
