I asked a few cops around here about them and they said aslong as they are not turned on while I am out driving I will be fine (also said if I do get caught with them on out on the road im fooked), if im parked at a show somewhere or in a private drive away from the road I can have them on. One asked me to flip them on and thought it looked "pretty damn sweet", the same cop also mentioned the idea of pulling the fuse on them if im not at a show; and thats what I do. That way if I do get pulled over and a cop notices them and wants to give me a hard time I can tell him that they areunhooked and cant be turned on.
