After 1 1/2 yrs of running with blue led side blinkers, a bored cop decided to bust my balls. Not only are they illegal--because they're blue--but they're 1,000% illegal lol. I get it. 20181117_141417.jpg 20181117_141436.jpg No ticket, just a warning. Changed thrm to white today.20181117_143550.jpg 20181117_143558.jpg
Now I'm sure if the same cop sees me now, he'll pull me over again to tell me that white bulbs are 1,000% illegal, and they should be amber. He also told me that pretty much all aftermarket tail lights are also illegal unless DOT is stamped on them, and alot of cops just ignore it. I get that too. Holy shit! He must've been seriously bored.20180915_162059.jpg
Do my tail lights look like cop magnets??

If your taillights are cop magnets, then my stock Tahoe tails are, too.

Unless you have those LED bulbs with crappy output that you can barely tell the difference in brightness between running and braking lights.

No leds back there, like you said they have lousey output. I don't know what these are called, but they have pretty decent output. You can tell when I'm stepping on the brakes.WdqkXQvz-332638754.jpg IMAG00040001_1541972241358.jpg

Your tail lights are fine, aslong as they aren’t dim, work correctly and aren’t darkly tinted you should be fine

Yeah, they're good to go. I honestly don't know what he was talking about.
