Just for ****s n' giggles I had a buddy tint my headlight yellow last night using some vinyl. It looks pretty sweet, and provides plenty of light for driving. Am I gonna get pulled over by the first cop that sees me? It'd be pretty cool if I got to leave it on.
It depends on the cop... some find it illegal some dont. as long as you have driving/working lights no ones gonna car.
Perfectly legal... In France. I think here there's a colour range that headlights have to be in. Yellow is on one end, blue on the other. Stuart.
You should search the statutes. http://ros.leg.mn or http://www.revisor.leg.state.mn.us It seems Chapter 169. Trafic Regulations covers what you're looking for: Specifically: 169.49 Headlamps 169.49 HEADLAMPS. (a) Every motor vehicle, other than a motorcycle, shall be equipped with at least two headlamps, with at least one on each side of the front of the motor vehicle, which headlamps shall comply with the requirements and limitations set forth in sections 169.47 to 169.79. (b) Every motorcycle shall be equipped with at least one and not more than two headlamps, which shall comply with the requirements and limitations of sections 169.47 to 169.79. History: (2720-235) 1937 c 464 s 85; 1957 c 754 s 1 169.48 talks about when to use them 169.48 VEHICLE LIGHTING. Subdivision 1. Lights to be displayed.

Typically MN hates any modifications to your lighting systems. More than likely it is illegal but most cops probably won't care. It's all relative to interpretation, I guess.
I saw one silver VW golf that had a headlight yellow fimed mostly i spotted that at 394....drive like a jackhole!!!!!
An angry donkey with no turn signal thinks " yO look...and MRX, let's road rage his heiny" ....get a l!fe who drives that junkies....
yeah right....is aight to hensel on my wife the other night......how does he likes to be gettin tailgate!!!!!!! Dieser Idiot
Settle down there, it's not like you have to like everybody. And I've been tailgated plenty of time in my life, I either speed up or move over but I rarely take it personally.
eh from my experiences it all comes down to the cop, either they wont care at all or they would throw an absolute fit over eye lids or whatever even.
At least it'll peal right back off if I get hassled for it. We smoked the tail lights using some smoke colored vinyl as well, the color looks awesome, but there is way too many wrinkles on the sides. Were gonna pull it back off and try and get it smoother, but from a distance it looks super nice.
well i have had yellow bulbs (luminicsbulbs jdm yellow) in my integra for well over a year now, lenses are still clear, but u can ask anybody that has seen em and they will tell you that the output is totally yellow. still im yet to be hassled or pulled over with them on, now im actually goin to be painting the lens on my high beams. but thats i get all these other projects done with the suby...
