Failed DMV Inespection!

They failed me because of my "blue" headlights! THose bastards! I have stock Headamps with Silverstar "white" headlighta! They're not even that bright! Sh|t, I even have trouble seeing at night!

I got a dumba$$ inspector. He was all "wow that's a nice ride" and then he goes and stabs me in the a$$. He was just jealous I had such a nice looking 3 year old car, while he drives his 20 year old beat-up volvo!

Dammit. He was all nice and tehn he asked teh mileage, and he was like wow you got that in 2000 and you only got that many minles? (14300) He probably got jealous of my NJIT sticker and City Hall Employee parking permit sticker. He must've been thinking "damn this kid's got a phat ride, working for the government, and going to a college! I'm only a retarded reject who works at the DMV! How pathetic I am. . " Well, good he is a pathetic fool, inflicting pain on those who do not deserve it. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG]

well I think if he was trying to **** you off, it worked, don't let it bother you though, what goes around comes around. Tomorrow morning his car will probably brake down and he'll be forced to ride a bicycle to work.

You should have gotten a little card thingy with the lights. I just put mine Sylvanian ones in and they have a DOT number thing on a little card.
If you have that you just show it to the police or the inspector and tell them sorry but they are street legal.
I have a whole packet of stuff in my car now because of all the stuff I have added to my car.

They are. I'ma bring the packaging for the reinspection. Make sure I get that same bastard and shove it in his face.
ALWAYS KEEP PAPERWORK/PACKAGING ON THEMODS YOU DO, IN YOUR CAR. Police can pull you over too, just because they think that stuff's not legal.

First mistake was taking it to the DMV. Second, you should know your local laws. And third, Valvoline does inspections also, they usually have young kids and younger adults working there.

Ok fragar, only one of your 3 points were helpful. I never thought a person of your calibur would post blurb that are anything but helpful. First off, it's the DMV. It's legit and they are law. #2 The packaging that the bulbs came in, had written "Legal In NJ" and being that I work at City Hall, I asked the boys in blue dowstairs at the Police headquarters, and they said it was fine after I showed the headlights on + the bulb's packaging. lastly, I have not seen a Valvoline station since my visit down in Texas last year.

Listen, I may be a little ricey, but that doesn't mean I don't have dignity. I'd rather get a legal inspection that'll catch everything, than cutting corners which might lead to bad things down the road.

I am just ticked off that I failed because of Lights that ARE legal. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-nono.gif[/IMG] Now I have this retarded neon sticker that has REJECTED in bold on it, lying smack dab on my windshield. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-nono.gif[/IMG]

If you got any suggestions (who to go to to get a sticker the easy way), please tell me. I have 45 days for me to get my car reinspected. After that, the car's unregistered and illegal. Otherwise I'm just going to order projectors online, TYC for legal purposes. Those a$$holes.

Instead of insulting a person behind his back because he's doing his job, go swap out your rice and put some better bulbs in.

Well, where I'm from, you don't have to have your car inspected at the DMV. There are about 50 places around where I live who will inspect your car for $12.50. That's why I said his first mistake was taking it the DMV. It's the Department of Motor Vehicles man, of course they're going to be super tough and try and catch every violation. Every year it must be renewed, and you get Inspection Sticker to stick on your windshield.

I'm kinda glad I live in Canada now, cause we have nothing like this ..... all we have is an emissions test and you only get that done when your car is a certian age ......And like Baghead said, I highly doubt that he was jealous of you ......... But you just keep telling yourself that if it makes you feel better
