They're only illegal if they flash. I had some red turn signals because i wanted to see what it looked like with my truck being red. i liked it but because they flash red, it can be mistaken as being a cop car. And, most cops won't care. I switched back to ambers because i didn't want to risk a ticket

haha sorry... i just think its funny that you didnt know they were there lol.
BUT it makes me wonder if: A. the previous owner didnt know how to wire them. or B. Disconnected them because he got a ticket lol.

Even is they were illegal I'd leave em... its kinda like my illegal tint lol 18% up front and a Windshield visor strip WAY below the AS1 line. lol

Funny thing is, I'm a Criminology Major and in about 3 years will be a police officer lol.

P.S. speaking of tint, you should tint yours! would def change the whole look of the truck!

If my old paper is still valid. The michigan tint law inacted in 2000. States that;
Windshield: Any darkness non reflective tint on the top 4 inches of the glass.

Side front: Any darkness except the top 4 inches of the glass(weird? I'm gonna check that.)

Side rear and backglass: Any darkness tint can be used.

As for price I'm sure Mtopper will drop back in tonight. Man you guys are lucky. Here the darkest we can have on the side front glass is 35%.

Your truck looks great without the rice burning glow lights on it. Be American buy American

Screwed is right, its supposedly 4 inches from the top. I have an eye condition that requires me to have the darkest of dark sunglasses, always have to put in eye drops and the window tint helps with that. BUT, my cousin who is located at 25 mile road and Hayes does window tinting and vinyl graphics. He would charge about $50-60 for the front two windows on our trucks because they aren't that big.


Also, if you get pulled over with tint more than the legal limit, they'll write you a ticket where you have to take it off, go to the station and pay like $10 to have it erased. My buddy with his monte carlo had that happen
