Wow I did not know that LED's make you faster... You know there is an 'Exterior Apperance' forum.

Each one you add is +1 hp :p
And if you add the big 12v ones, they're +3 hp each

Well...now that everyone else has shot you down....

Let's put it this way....its definitely not illegal if its a white light. You are allowed by law, white and amber lights from the front of the vehicle, period, no argument.

Other than white....no matter what, as long as you don't see the light itself, but rather the reflection, the law would state you aren't allowed to see the light, not the reflection. (Otherwise, you wouldn't be allowed to have turn on interior lights in your car, period).

so...if you want to do this...check here:
