Nailed for projectors...wtf

Anyone else get nailed for having projector headlights on their car? I got pulled over tonight by a county sheriff claiming my brand new projector headlights i got for christmas are not ok to have on the car.

*also: anyone exactly what im doing wrong to get my angel eyes on my projectors to work? I have directions, and it says put the red wire to the running light signal on the harness, and the black wire to ground. Now i have a red and a white wire on the angel eyes, not a fricken black wire, and i tried red to signal, and white to ground, and i tried it the other way around, and nothing. any help would be great. thanks.

there are a ton of new cars with projector headlights, why is it not ok for you to have them? if you got a ticket, look up your local laws and find the # from the citation. see what it says and how it matters to your lights.

*Shpyder just did his up and says he got them working...

some projectors aren't dot approved. this neans they arent legal for street use. you might also not have aimed them correctly which might let him give you a ticket for them blinding other people

that is true... and some stuff that is DOT approved may not be localy approved [as a California Highway Patrolman explained to me as he was writing me up...]

yeah i dont see how an SUV with 75,000 K lights can drive around with no ticket. it lucky us "car" drivers dont go into comas when we get hit with those bright lights

thier not illegal just fight it they cant make up their own laws, i garentee there is no law for them as long as their dot approved

got grip, you obviously didnt read vince's (boostedspyder) post. Local laws can be different and just being DOT approved doesnt mean they arent illegal in places.

i dunno how many times those damned SUV HID lights have triggered a migraine for me.
