while i was surfing the net on lighting laws specifically fog lights i came across this. not sure if u've seen it before, but it seems like this is what the cops follow.

 

local pd will enforce the state vehicle code. i

 

very informative. I just have to laugh at how far behind the U.S. is on its lighting standards, compared to the rest of the world. I have yet to be pulled over for having my ECE headlights, and I'd probably fight the ticket if I ever did. I mean what's so illegal about wanting to drive safe at night? those lights aren't any brighter to oncoming traffic than my stocks were.

 

Now this may seem stupid, but what are ece lights??

 

thanks for the link but every state inforces differently and some things are different depending on the cars. like BMW some of their cars come stock with white turn signals even though in most states its illegal to have white turn signals however since the car was approved by DOT then they white turn signals are legal. so not every rule will apply to u or us

 

For some reason, that was quite interesting. I read every page.

 

my bad sorry...ECE is European Code (ecode). My lights belong on a honda you'd normally find in germany, or any other left hand drive european country.

 

Some of that document is false...

 

sounds cool are they alot brighter?

 

they won't seem any brighter to oncoming traffic. What sets them apart from the stock headlights, is the way the beam is projected onto the road (no these are not projector lights either). Go to hondasociety.com and do a search for ecodes. There is a post there with some before/after pictures I took of the beam patterns.
