| I would think if you are looking for that evil look Red only drawback is you can't have them on while driving so white would work too. _________________  2006 Daytona GoMango #3918 2009 Challenger R/T |

| Make sure you read up on these things before you do anything, PJ. Hour upon hour and thousands of words have been devoted to making these things work correctly.
There can be a heavy price to pay for looking cool and that could just be your sanity. _________________  Another quality sig by DartBoy. Nine out of ten dentists approve. |

Talk to me. I'm 5 months into a halo implementation with nothing installed yet. I bought a set from AAC and I bought a set from Flashtech. I know what's going on with both of the main halo suppliers. There are gotchas for both.
Basically, don't take this on lightly.
BTW...Illinois law states only white or amber while rolling. It's not just red and blue, but any other color that's illegal while rolling as well. You'll have people tell you they drive with them all the time and no problem...that may be true thus far, but it's up to you if you want to take that chance or not. |

| Your a mind reader bro!!! lol
Just for peace of mind, I have talked to a couple of cops at some different car shows I went too over the summer. I showed them by led halos and asked if it was against the law. Their answer yes!!! My next question would you bother me if I was driving with them on. They said there was a chance they would pull me over, but would probably let me off with a warning as long as I wasnt a disrespectful punk gangbanger. I have also had cops coming at me in the opposite direction while I had my halos on, Have gotten a double look but never pulled over.

Yeah, I mean I'm not saying you'll definitely get pulled over, and I'm not saying there's no way you will. I just decided:
1) I wanted something I could light all the time without having to worry about it, and
2) I don't go to enough shows to spend money and time on something I could only light without worrying at shows and M&Gs.
It's up to each person. |
