    I linked the wrong one I think.

    I have a VT so I think the VT SS ones are the same silvery crap as the normal cars?

    This is going on a monaro cv8z bar.

    Just remember, that you will be 'cop bait' if you fit non standard head lights! Projectors are not allowed in South Oz, and I would presume that applies to the rest of the joint as well!

    well apparently they are ADR compliant so i dunno... cops can ping you and you can get a blue slip guy to clear it BUT you still pay the fine!

    other than that it's not so bad in NSW

    there's just not enough cops on the roads to be honest!

    adr approved is bull#$%@ when i got done speeding in my old vt, with altezza tail lights and similar to those front lights. fortunately the good chick said 'they are not legal tail lights' i said they're adr approved she said anything that wasnt on car from factory is defectable, but she didnt have a problem with them coz they're more visible than the originals but you another officer might disagree in the city.

    i think its about how you drive that plays a big part in it, the miss's had clear tail lights on the lancer with red indicators and we drove around for years without ever getting done for it...

    "Those lights aren't legal"

    "Officer, with all due respect, you don't know what you are talking about."

    "I might not, but this yellow sticker does. Peace out smart ass."

    They will sticker your car for what ever they like.. I got a sticker for my road bike just before Xmas for not having a red reflector on the rear fender.. My wife is a cop and she keeps telling my car is cop bait, it's stock except the wheels..

    "cop bait" could be a stock Skyline or Silvia with a set of aftermarket wheels... especially in the area that Constable Pettit patrols

    anyway i seem to have bigger issues... since i've bought a CV8Z front bar i need the lights that go with that and that's where things get expensive
