Solid undercar kits are legal as long as they are not red or blue. (emergency vehicle colors) Some places it just depends on the cops as far as coloring, I used to use red undercar kits but it just took one jerk off cop to not like it so I put 2 Varaad LED ultra bright orange kits under the car, I actually had cops compliment that kit and ask where I got'm.

I think it is illegal to run with them on. period. flashing or not.

I think the cops confuse you for a UFO.

Probably got tired of dropping their donouts.

In the past few years cops have become alot more leniant(sp?) with neon lighting as well as smoked headlights/tail lights. Both were illegal everywhere, and still are in some places but they aren't as big of distractions as they were thought to be when they first came out. I see cars with red and blue underneath every night. If your undercar LED's are Streetglow then a little heads up here...your gonna be blowing fuses like crazy. My 1st kit I had was Streetglow and I was blowing fuses on it every week and taking it back and having it worked on, we went through 3 new kits having the same problem. Aside from my warning from that cop thats the other reason I changed my lights. Ran Varaad every morning on way to work and every night on way home for a year with only one problem of breaking the rear light fixture off going airborn but the people that installed it replaced it because their installation should not have come loose lol.
