    where are you driving? I find it varies by officer and location more than anything.

    I've never had issues with anyone but we have only mostly 2 lane highways and a TON of deer/elk/turkeys/bears/lions/cows/ect that you can hit. So most don't really care as long as your respectful.

    I went with the Spiker kit too, I was just curious of the cost of the Redlines. When I heard about the Spiker kit and saw how easy it was to install I didn’t even shop around. Also Leon was super cool and easy to work with.

    I thought Spiker wasn't ready for 01-04 yet?

    Did they work out of the box or did you have to add resistance to get the LEDs to work (or were you replacing other LEDs)?

    The Hood strut kit is available on his site for 01-04.

    What’s not available for 01-04 is his ScanGauge/UltraGauge Mount.

    I went with the Spiker kit too, I was just curious of the cost of the Redlines. When I heard about the Spiker kit and saw how easy it was to install I didn’t even shop around. Also
