My Resto-Mod Odyssey - '08 Tahoe LT3

Well, I just failed state safety inspection due to my LEDs in place of halogen bulbs

You’re not moving anywhere.

Not yet. Most likely will be another 1.5 years, when my youngest will be starting middle school. That's plenty of time to do some @jdpber-level research. When it gets closer to that time, I might query some of you guys here for details of your locales. Don't worry, I won't bother you cuz I'm not interested in any place with excessively stringent car mod laws.

Fair enough.

As stated, I'm not too keen on switching all bulbs back & forth, and I'm going to have to do that every year if I want to run LED exterior bulbs. So I'm thinking about selling-off my whole LED setup (less the interior LEDs) and permanently going back to factory-style. I'll post up if I make that decision. Someone will get a great deal.

Dammit. Why'd you have to say that? Now I gotta scroll back through your pics to see if I can find a reason to talk myself out of buying yours should you decide to sell. I could source my own, but getting everything in a complete package caters to my laziness.

 

[08HoeCD]

Yup, a complete and turn-key package. Only reason I'd sell is that I'm lazy and don't care to do the light-swap dance every year.

I'll make a decision by Monday, since I'm changing all out this weekend to have the ol' girl reinspected. Will advise.

Couldn't you just find a different inspector that would be lenient?

I know VA is a pain in the ass... I used to have to shut off all the blue lights on my Peterbilt when going through the scale houses.

They have just revamped some inspection protocols statewide. I have reason to believe that the jig's up.
