[Cruizin2k]

Currently, I've been curious/wondering about ordering some HID Lights for MY Cruiser.. But the Problem is there Illgeal but some in what ways I was wondering If I get the lower wattage or somthing like around 6000K - its the same lights on the bmws n all that luxury cars..

well the problem is, there illgeal and im worried cops may pull me over for having them and they ask if its factory or not. But I was wondering ya any of you know anyone who has them on there PT and had any problems with them.

Heres what the 6000K looks -




Information on anything n laws would be helpful. Thanks.

If it's already illegal, why bother putting time and money into it, all to risk having the police force you to remove it all and pay a fine? The HID's are extremely annoying to oncoming traffic, anyway. Even driving with the lower "auxillary" or 'fog' lights can drive others nuts. Best to leave well enough alone.

I dont think the brightness will be why they pull you over. The color of the lights is what they will notice first. And Im sure they know that color light is not stock on a PT. So a lesser wattage will not help you.

But try the Silver star lights. They are DOT and are "just" a replacement bulb.

I have been watching Wagner Tru-View lights. They are just now coming out. They say the PT ones will be out soon, whatever that means. Check google for "truview" you can get the skinny about these lights.

Yes I got the Silverstars Already but I would like a more nice glow on my pt but Im not considering into getting one but just wondering.

I know a member on here named Stonewhitept has HIDs on his and he said he had no problems with it or the cops doing anything.

Do a search in your states traffic statutes, I bet you'll find nothing saying HID's are illegal. It's highly impractical for something like that to be illegal if it comes stock on some cars. Chances are, you're going to find a law that says no vehicle may display a blue light, a red flashing light, or an alternating light and that's all. As for other drivers being annoyed by your headlights, screw 'em, it's your car not theirs.
