I think the green is illegal. Go red or amber.

I like rockstar's idea of going with the amber. That'd look sick I would think.

doesnt matter what they think, running amber lights are ok on ANY part of the vehicle except the rear in LA

retired police chief next door at the boat shop said as long as they arent REAR facing lights.

not legal at all, unless of course you make them into turn signals instead of running lights

amber is up front for other drivers to know that is the front of the car, and then the red is for the back of the car (as said except turn signals, they can be either red or amber on the back)

wrong.
otherwise manufacturers wouldnt put them on the top part of the cab on trucks and on the side mirrors... AND on the side of the bed on flatbed trucks.

they cant be REAR FACING lights. but they can be placed anywhere on the front/side/top of the vehicle. in the form of turn signals or running lights.

i have a class A license... they burn this shit into your head when taking the tests...

but what do i know, im just a dumb truck driver with access to police advice anytime i need it

you a truckie then (and class A here at least is a tractor trailer combo)

but if you still notice though the last light is red, and considering that they are already quite close to the back of the vehicle, the piggies might be able to consider that as needing to be red though

i started out with my company driving 18 wheelers and 2 ton flatbeds.

we have 3 sets of lights on the bed... first 2 sets are amber, set on the back corner are red.

the amber lights on the cab can be seen visibly from the front or rear of the vehicle.. the bed lights of course can be seen from either side of the vehicle..

the lights on the top side of the spoiler wouldnt be much different if you ask me, unless somebody decided they thought they actually directed light behind the car.

its more about the direction of the lights rather than the acutal placement of them.

as you know most big rigs and limos and even older dually's will sometimes have excessive amber lights down the sides/bottom of the vehicle.

but you can see them from the rear though, especially if you are in a higher sitting vehicle, cause i know just standing behind the car like 15-20 feet you can see them some, not a whole lot though, but still visible though

maybe so, but they are still towards the front though, and not literally hanging over the tail lights, at the back of the car
