its going to vary state by state and most people wouldnt know offhand. you can always ask an officer if hes not strapped for time.

depends on local laws. personally it looks lke crap though, i see no reason to do this on a car at all since it does nothing but decrease your light output at night

Call your local police or state police substation and ask them.

I have a LeMans Z with the yellow tint. I get alot of great feedback. The yellow tint goes with the color of the car. I have used it for 4 years and no tickets. Most cops don't even notice and the light output is close to stock.

Why yellow headlight tint?

Do you strive to be JDM?

If your answer to the above questions are either "it looks sick" or "Yes" you might want to rest down the F&F 123 cd collection...

It does go well with the LeMans. I get alot of good feedback and most cops don't even notice. Light output is just fine also.

Just give it time, the headlights will tint to yellow on their own.
