Blue Dot Taillights

Post by Swegner99 »

Where are these available from, I looked through my DC, LMC, and NPD catalogs and didnt see them. Did I overlook them? I think they look great and I want a set, also, anyone know if they come in LED?

Thanks

there not the whole light assembly there only the blue dots that you install in to your current tail light lenses. you can get them through summit, speedway and there on page 140 of the new LMC catalog ( 2012 winter edition)

Keep in mind that blue dots are almost universally illegal so if you already have cop issues it can make a bad situation worse as they can use blue dots as a probable cause for a stop. Most cops are cool but every once in a while... Just sayin'. Hawkrod

Blue Dots are legal in WA on all vehicles more than 40 years old, and any motorcycle regardless of age.

AZ is kind of weird with tail light statutes... You have to have one. It has to be more than 15" from the ground and less than 75" or something like that from the ground. You can also have two when they are wired together with a license plate light as long as they are always on when the head lights are on. They must be red. Apparently AZ may not have thought of Third Brake Lights yet. Anything else seems to be left to the discretion of law enforcement.

I think JCW still carries Blue Dots... but they are probably plastic.

Hey thanks everyone, Im not too worried about getting hassled by the man for them. Im squeaky clean nowadays as far as the law is concerned. We are right on the cuff of being rural out here in the desert, so the the police dont really mess with anyone too bad for stuff like this. We have the ricers with full underglow and tire chasers that never get messed with so I think im safe.

If you buy some, make sure you get the Real glass ones. They cost a little more,but give off a much better purple glow than the plastic ones. I have bought several sets off eBay for my bikes and car projects.
