I Mounted some blue lights behind the new grill. The idea here is to give the beast some night time personality!

Can you drive on the road with those lights on? You'd get a ticket in a NY minute here in WA.

I spoke with a couple cops and driving on the main roads would get a ticket with the xmas lights on. In the neighborhood they shouldn't be a problem. The blue lights under the grill are ok. They tried to call them a distraction a few years back but the courts said the solid colors tucked away were legal. You just can't have the direct light visible.

Ya Ham, it's hard to believe 2014 is almost to an end!

The linkage was cut in half and aligned with a piece of angle iron. I scratched a line in the Rod before I cut it so the orientation would be right. Thanks WK!
