Shouldn't be.

I have them in my front foot wells, I just don't drive with them on all the time cause they're annoying on all the time. Besides, the novelty wears off if you drive with them on all the time. I use them to amuse passengers.

do you mean driving with your windows down or when the cops come and pull you over roll down your windows...

yup i'm worried... haha basically if the cop wants to rape you they can usually find something wrong with anything that isnt stock...

about the lights

in kansas the law is..."the bulbs cannot be showing or they are illeagal" if the bulb is not showing and only the light that is ommited is seen they cannot be taken as a distraction to driver or endangering or distracting other drivers....so under the dash is great...on the back deck if the bulb can be seen from front or back when driving not good....also if cops want to be ducks they can nail you if you put it up neer the sunroof.... but if you want the glow in your car...place it in the trunk behind the ski hole it will light up the center of the dash they look pretty decent with an after market radio.,...

as for the cops putting up pen marks....can you say " i sued the **pd and now they are harassing me.....so i sued them again and now i got my tint back and had all 12 of my friends windows tinted." haha

My friend has these two blue dash lights and so i asked the cop if that was okay. I believe that he said as long as it is pointing on the inside it is okay...

"My friend and i drive with windows down to save up some gas"???? Do you mean as opposed to having the a/c on? When you open the windows it creates "WIND DRAG" which eats up on some (ERRRR?) oh yeh! GAS!

the cops down here wouldn't try something like that, they'll have to watch there backs if they did. OH yea. i would think that having a black like on while driving is illegal because it disrupts your concentration to the road.

the tint deal is so the cops can see what you're doing when they pull you over so you dont shoot em without them seeing you do it first
another idea is when you get pulled over put the dome light on... like you have nothing to hide...
