LED Tailights in standard size?

[Wicked Webby]

Patriot,

I would be interested in the idea of a full LED board (custom, of course) inside for the brakes/tail lamps.

In looking at the website above, why does it say this (?);
"Note: this product is not DOT approved, for off road use only"

That's lawyerese for "we didn't bother to jump through all the time-consuming and expensive regulatory hoops to get DOT type approval, so use it on the street at your own risk."

No different than "advertisement was filmed on a closed course using professional drivers" - "wot? you mean I can't drift my Mercedes sideways through stoplights while talking on the cell phone like in the ad???? dammit! I'll sue!"

Semi-clueless in San Luis

Should be read as "Not DOT approved (for street use). For off-road use only." This phrase exists on darn near every after-market lighting kit ever created, most after-market exhaust systems and is generally ignored by one and all.

Talk about your 'Faustian Pact'....!

The measure of a society can often be seen in which laws it chooses to obey.

Ignoring laws, at will, may be just the beginning of a 'slippery slope'....? :blink:

Yeah, just look at what that Rosa Parks chick started. [sarcasm, people, sarcasm!!] That statement says more about the quality of the laws than it does about the quality of the people under the law.

Anyway, this is a _light bulb_ of which we speak, not murder or grand theft auto.

I'd check the insurance coverage on your glass house before you go much further: Are you going to tell me that you obey the speed limit 100% of the time? That you signal all of your lane changes when there's not another vehicle within a quarter mile of you? That you never dump a AA battery in your trashcan when your TV remote dies?
