In America- 1.You can have neon's as long as they are not blue or red.
                  2.No lights in the interior of the car on the roof.
                  3.Lights on the hood are legal to(although very annoying).

what where do you live where they can't be blue or red cuz i live in ny and you can have blue or red hell i know 2 guy's that have blue light's under there car

I&#39;ve had the wonderful (mis)fortune of having worked in the motor trade for the past 6 years in the UK so I know a bit about the law on visual modifications.

Lights/warning lights:

Headlamps: White or light blue.
Indicators/flashers: Amber.
Brake lamps: Red.
Front foglamps: White.
Rear foglamps and tail lights: Red and of a lower wattage than the brake lights to avoid confusion.
Rear number plate lamp: White.
Interior lamps: No requirment on colour.

Any other lighting added to the vehicle aftermarket has no strict laws applying to them.

But.......

It is up to the copper that tugged you what is within the law.
If you have your car lit up like a christmas tree then the nice officer may consider that to be a distraction to you, as the driver, and other roadusers.
Its the same sort of thing we had with using mobiles while at the wheel. Up until recently it was&#39;nt strictly illegal but you could be fined under the law of driving without due care and attention.
The penalty you recieve may vary as well. In most cases you wil recieve a ticking off and a producer (a warrant for you to go to your local station with your vehicle and insurance documents as well as a signed statement from a mechanic that the offending articles have been removed/replaced) If your unlucky you may recieve a fine of upto £1000 and points on your licence.

In short if you must do this type of thing keep it subtle and make sure you fit an on/off switch in easy reach incase you spot the rozz. If they see you switch the lights off then chances are you wont geet a tug unless they&#39;re really bored.

Should this be legal?
