Is white the only color you can burn? Or can you have a white with a little blue hint to it?

For that, you would have to check with your local constabulary.

i don't think it would make much of a difference unless it effects your ability to read the licence plate.

Given that you already got pulled over already for not having working plate lights I'd just get some $2 bulbs from walmart and put them in until you find something else to your liking.

Never know when your gonna get pulled over by some a**hole cop in a bad mood.

thats because there broken there suppose to be screwed in...pull out the two screws on the front near the licence plate pull off the black cap then pop out the white backing..the white backing is suppose to be attached to the socket...crazy glue it back together then silicone around the edge so theres no leaks..

I got one better. I was pulled over at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, bright sunny day for my off-road lights not being covered! They weren't on, none of my lights were, but having off-road lights mounted above the center line of the headlights must be covered at ALL times while on the road in Florida!!!

I did get off with a written warning though...

Should be able to run the :"LED-blue".

Go down to where there are the license plate lights.
BTW, don't drive through Chandler, Brownsboro, Murchison, or Athens.
They will screw you over, bad.
