blue underbody neon is illegal almost everywhere
interior lights are ok as long as it is behind the driver, for neon and stuff, if your talkin about like the door and map lights, its fine
correct me if anyone knows im wrong, but i think its somethin like this

saw a silly white boy the other night who has blue neon tube mounted on the back dash and on where the center dome light used to be. Didn't even bother covering it up, just left it there out in the open. Looks like a freakin fish tank IMO.

I think that underbody kits are only illegal when you are moving. So you can turn them on when the car is stopped

it varies from state to state
certain colors are illegal everywhere, like any emergency colors
not too many states allow it though, so check with ur dmv

blue neons

I have a blue/yellow underbody street glow kit. Ohio is the most lenient on neons. Never been pulled over for blue, but was in Florida for two days and got pulled over for having blue under my car.

yeah i live in florida and cops here will get you for whatever they can. what part of ohio? i have family that live outside of mansfield.

Anyway i pulled into village in last night and a cop was there and he told me that any blue or red lights on the inside or outside of the vehicle were illegal. so im just go research the laws on lighting.

neons

I live in MN and the law states that if you are moving or parked you cannot have the neons on unless they are on the rear and red or on the front and orange. you can be moving in a parking lot or parked in a parking lot and have them on but once you hit city streets or property its illegal. Got the gist from a student studying to be a piggy.
