HIDS CAUSE MORE POLICE ATTENTION.. what do you think...

And some Saab's but that different becuase it's oem equipment. Any models to safety equip like lights give the police the right to stop you. I sure wouldn't want anything illegal in my truck if I had any mods on the outside.

So I have actually had cops completely ignore me ever since I got into this new truck of mine, but I think other than the HID's I have done very tasteful mods, and even my HID's are tasteful as I have them in projector housings and that seems to keep the Troopers happy, they have watched me go right by even speeding and never even pulled out or stopped me. My exhaust is still quiet, my truck is not ridiculously lifted, I have one sticker in the back window thats my old school, a big H for University of Hawaii. My old truck however was a bright red redneck mess and their eyes would follow me even if someone else was going double my speed right past them. However in this truck its almost as though their eyes slide right past me. *knock on wood*

yeah, ive never been pulled over before while driving. Always heavy on the gas pedal with the flowmaster, back windshield full of stickers, radar detector in clear site, and out of state tags now. I'll be throwin on 20% tint once it arrives so we'll see then. No HIDs though and no plans for them ever. Also, I am pretty sure it's illegal anywhere in the US to tint your windshield. Pretty sure you can only put a brow on there.
Its very rare if I ever speed more than 5-7 over the limit. Who cares if I get there 15 minutes later? I mean seriously, is 10-15 minutes really worth a couple hundred bucks? Also, only reason I have the detector is because I got it for free on craigslist and it gives me the ability to slow down 5mph to the actual speed limit! LOL, and the emergency vehicle function is nice since I drive by the hospital everyday and need to get out of the way of ambulances.

For nationwide tint laws by state look here: www.tintlaws.com
For the most part, when I get pulled over, I roll both windows down immediately and if it's night time, I flip the dome on as well. Never had one cop, sheriff, or trooper say one word about it, but I don't cop an attitude either.
