So, I got stopped the other day by a state trooper, two minutes from house, gettign ready to get on I-95, going to work. He pulls me over for my tail lights. He said that they are illegal, because they are tinted. I said, i bought them because they are LED and i figured they would be safer and all that bs. He didnt like that answer. So as im sitting there he asked me roll up my windows, and he puts a tint meter on there. I immediately tell him its going to read 15%. Sure enough 15% on the meter. Se he gives me a ticket for windows, but not my tail lights. WTF. So now im going to go to ct so i can show them that i removed my tint, and hopefully get it dropped? I doubt it will happen, but its a shot. I have removed the tint ftom my front windows, and im going to put 35% insted of the 20% i had on it.
02HONDADX - arent those the taillights for the 04-05 models? bc ive looked those up before and iwasnt sure if they would fit on an 01, so i never got them.
yeah gearbox is right thats bs cops ahve nothing better to do but to follow moded cars. and do u think its a waste of money getting a catback on an automatic? i want an apexi ws2 but its 400 then i was looking at the N1 Tsudo ones
i have an auto and exhaust is fine, nothing wrong with modding autos, they are just slower than manual cause more power gets robbed by the torque converter.

Well i got them from e-bay and it listed the years from 01-05. So i e-mailed the company i bought them from (on ebay) and they said it would work. So i tried them out and they worked. they fit in the spot good, and they hooked up fine. If you want more information on where i got them from let me know
those led tails arent tinted, so i dont see any problem. the leds are fully visible. i think he just wanted a reason to stop you.
Well there is a slight tint to them, but it doesn't effect how they operate. Your probably right, he just wanted a reason. lol...Hes not the only cop thats stopped me for them though. But everytime i get stopped, i dont get ticketed for them??? I dont understand. Why waste the time to stop someone if your not going to ticket them??? They spend 15-30 minutes b/s'n Ugh!!
