    1: Are my new headlight and taillight strobes legal?
    2: How far must you be able to hear audio to still be legal?
    3: Interior and exterior neons?

    THANK YOU

    1. I don't think strobes are legal
    2. This is based upon opinion because I highly doubt an officer will sit around with the proper device to measure the db level and a specified distance. I was ticketed and my car impounded for this when I was 19. I think it was 70db at 50 ft.
    3. I don't think interior is a problem depending on the color. Exterior is also questionalbe depending on the color. I know locally neons are illegal around the lisence plate and if they are certain colors.

    This is all based on local laws though. Personally I wouldn't do any of this if I was driving. I would only turn the stuff on if I was parked and showing the car off.

    In most states all of the above will get your ticketed regaurdless of the legality of the time. Cops dont know the law.

    I was ticketed years back for red underglow I had, it was perfectly legal at the time for the way I had it installed, I fought and won but shortly their after the law was changed:rolleyes:


    In order to stay with in the laws of "the land of the free" you have to remove everything, even factory installed items:rolleyes:

    Most factory radios are capable of violating most noise ordinances:rolleyes:

    Strobes - ILLEGAL (impersonating an officer of the law, distraction of traffic)
    How Far - ILLEGAL if it can he heard 9 feet from vehicle (in town)
    Interior Neons - ILLEGAL if the light can be seen outside of vehicle.
    Lower Neons - ILLEGAL unless the car is parked AND off. No blue strobing.

    I live in Andalusia, and that is the way it is here. I assume that it is similar where you are.
