    My truck recently passed the NC state inspection, again. Questions have been raised here about a few lighting changes I've done. The inspector did notice them, but passed them all with no questions asked. :thumbsup:

    1. Red LED license plate lights.


    2. Auxiliary tail/turn/stop lights.

    3. Flashing third brake light.

    4. Grill Lights.

    I’m impressed that the license plate lights passed, but during the day you can’t tell how difficult that plate is to read.

    Yeah...while “cool” that they passed inspection, the inspector is doing you no favors, as you’re ripe for a ticket later on down the road and will attract unwanted attention at night in general from LE.

    I'm not worried about attracting attention from LE.

    It's a fairly simple DIY job. See link in my signature for details.

    I am, I keep my tag lights white but a little dirty in case I have to go on the run again due to some unfortunate misunderstanding. :)
