There is definite DOT rules involved when mounting lights on the FRONT and REAR of vehicles. There is also DOT laws on how many lights can be ON at the same time on vehicles. Then when you finally figured what can be installed they hit with non-approved DOT lens on the light assemblies hehe..
Very good points.
Washington does have specific rules regarding lighting, but the good thing is they don't have annual vehicle inspections like some states do. I know Washington only allows a certain quantity of forward facing lights to be on a given time, when on public roads.
They really aren't much different than cornering lights, which some luxury cars have, which get activated when a turn signal is turned on.
I just helped my brother install a pair of these in his rear bumper...
6" oval LED light
Same concept, just oval instead of round.
