Anything other than white (headlights) and amber lights (parking/turn signals/foglights) will be illegal. Technically anything other than 4300k HID bulbs (when it comes to HID) is illegal.
Purple/pink/green/blue is all illegal when it comes to headlights on the road.
With all the HID kits popping up around my town, i'm sure, soon, they will be targeting these cars that don't come equipped stock with them. I'm glad I'll be retro'ing the stock HID into the headlights.

Does it says anywhere in the DMV booklet??? What you get pull over?? How much is the ticket? (est.) also cant you just show the police that it says DOT approved at Streel Legal?? Or if the police refuses. cant you claim to the Ebay Seller of False advertisiment??

i dont think anyone will get ticketed yet. since its not really a big deal. there such a small hand full of cars that have hid in non equip hid housings. i say as long as you put them in and adjust them to the right height you should be fine. getting a casper shield or making your own should push down most of the glare. i use to have 8k for my low beams and 10k for my fog lights. the cops didnt do anything. but i notice that some people got distracted by my 10k fogs so i pull those out and sold them. with the 8k low beam adjusted it seem fine no one was really bothered by them.
but caoboy is right if anything that is 4300k is maybe illegal. all stock oem equip is in that range. but no fuss yet from the cops yet.
but fo sure all those krazy colors are distracting like gawww dammm neon lights under your car. who needs that **** lmaooo. puddle lights are more classy :].
im thinking of doing a bypass on my 95 LS to just run fogs without my headlights
. just havent had time to do it yet
i just like to say if you put hid in your car and what not just be respective of other drivers take the precaution to make sure everything adjusted :].

i dont know the actual CVC, but believe it's either vehicle modification to lighting or unsafe equipment. lights arent like a k&n where you can just show the CARB sticker. dont forget, anyone can say their lights are DOT to sell you a product and get your money. K&N's been around a loooooooooong time and they've invested quite some change to get where they're at now.

Yeah true. But still, the ebay seller is a power seller and has been around for almost 3 years. ehm...still confused here...and also is it GREEN HID BULB or just GREEN XENON GAS FILLED halogen bulb???? because if it just a replacement for halogen and if you put it on your fogs, wouldnt there be no glare???
