Default LED's Turn Signals on Black Fbird

My cousin had these LED bulbs sitting around extra, so I bought them from him for 10$. I think they turned out pretty good.

My friend works for the sheriffs department and he said I should be alright. I passed 2 cops last night and they never did anything.

blue and red lights are illegal.

front have to be amber turn signals.

even clear is illegal.

its called impersonating emergency equipment.

ESPECIALLY cus they will blink...which is a big no no...

I don't think you will last too much longer with those lights man. They are kinda bright, I have LEDs in my backup lights and in direct sunlight you can't really tell they are on.

well I'll be the ginny pig for you guys... haha I'll keep you posted.. My good friend is a sheriff and I had him check them out before I drove it. He said I probably won't have a problem. The worste they would do is give me a fix-it ticket.

Only colors that are legal in CA are amber and clear in the front. Red and amber in the rear. Everyone needs to look up their own local laws as each state is different. However it doesnt look like 22fst4u really cares

It's the same in all 50 states. Blue lights can not be on any automobile except for emergency vehicles.

I was making a point about his "clear" statement.
