    Do you know if it is possible to get your hands on red daytime running lamps for the taco? I really like the look of them, it will go with my whole black and red theme. I saw red ones on a BMW today and I drooled a bit. Not sure if red is legal, or if it has to be amber or white? :confused:

    Depends on your local laws.

    Here, blue or red lights on the front will get you a massive ticket.

    Dreams; crushed.
    I guess the Asian playboy in the BMW is playing with fire then...
    I will make a call or two and find out if they're legal where I'm at. I'm sure someone sells alternate colors.

    I can see if your DRLs are also your headlights it would be bad, but in our case, they're beside our headlights, like eyeliner..o_O Hmm.

    Yeah, other than emergency vehicles, school buses are the only vehicles that can have red lights facing forward.(at least in IL)
