Okay. Important Update
I got pulled over for the first time with under glow. The officer told me he WAS going to write me a ticket. On the way to his car, he stopped came back and asked if I could turn the lights off. I responded asking him if he could double check the statute on auxiliary lamps for the State of Wisconsin. It helped that I had the print out the statute where he could look up the number and not spend time on it. Because I asked him (will extreme politeness because face it, i'm 20 and I have under glow.. not the best combination) he came back and said *quote* "I'm actually sorry for the inconvience but you are absolutely correct. Having White in front, amber on the side and red in the back is absolutely within your citizen rights." What I have is Wisconsin law statues. I also am posting below Illinois and Indiana. If you need help let me know and I'll try to find your states laws. =] enjoy driving legal. For help, email me at jmoddes@gmail.com and give me up to a day to respond please.
