Too dark IMO, make sure you get bright tail lights, the 5-0 like to mess with ppl with tinted lights, like me for example

I like them and and have been looking at doing the same on my headlights and tail lights. But I've been hearing they are illegal. Would adding brighter lights inside make them legal?

It's illegal to tint your tail lights, but most people do it and don't have a problem. No need to get anything brighter or sand it off. Looks good!!

They look GREAT !!!
Mine are tinted just as dark for years and I have NEVER had 1 cop mess with me and I drive this car all over the west coast with this car for SQ competitions . I know its all about where you are at and what you are doing with your car you know.

I like them but I know around here they would get me for them. I had one cop harass me for my stock tail lights.
