Insurance issue..., On projector headlights Options

[tto010]

The problem is, if i change to Projectors i get into serious trouble if they find it if something happens... Like i gotta pay the insurance pay-out if someone crashes into me.

Will it look good if i just keep original outers and put the clear inners inn? Long lights isnt that strict compared to near-lights.

Was thinking of using yellow protective foil on them as well, or maybe gunsmoked.

On some annual car inspections (here as well) they put some sort of box/monitor in front of your headlight, where they can see how your headlight projects light.. No-one with RHD headlights will pass the inspection (unless the inspector is sloppy).

Yeah, i was working as intern on a car-shop.

We in norway have EU-control. Here we have 1 hour to go over the car and a checklist.

They check the hight on Near lights, and light up a wall just to see if it is ok.
And some even read on the glass if they can find the E...

I belive the long light only have to be DOT approved because they dont have any LHD or RHD spesifics and they should not be on when somebody else is near anyways.

if something is wrong with lights, you get 2(1) points.
-1 is a broken blub...
-2 is wrong adjusted, have to be fixed and showed before the car passes... OR aftermarket xenon, or if they are wrong-ish...

But, there is alot of sloppy-heads, and many wierd things have passed...

We also have the 3point wrong, which means the car cannot be driven because its dangerous.

Here it is also illegal to drive when something does not work.... If i remove my fogs without removing relays, it is not legal...

But, alot of people dont realy care, and i meet alot of ****-heads running HID on Hiaces from the 90's and here the other day i saw a Peugot Panther with Camber on the rear wheels, on stock height....

I am acually modding my outers with everything perfectly done, but since the E isnt on the glass, i am realy skeptical to mounting them... I even made them light like they where OEM for driving on the right side of the road.




But, don't want to risk half my bank account just so my car looks cooler... then i'd rather buy a trackday car that i can modify the much i like without worrying about the stricktest most car hating "last communistic state" on the surface of the earth.

Last winter they even did this thing where we could only drive alternating days of the week...
monday- plates ending in 1,3,5,7,9.... thirsday- 0,2,4,6,8.... Wednesday, 1,3,5,7,9.... and so on....
and this worked because we have "passes" that trigger every time we drive through a "gate" where we have to pay to use the road we are driving on, and if we drove in the wrong place.... here you go mr.... a ticket for you!

holy cr@p dude you must live in china! what if you install the regular ones for the inspection take them off and save them and swap the projectors back on, as long as you modified them and they wont hurt anyone I don't see why you shouldn't use them. here in the united states they now only inspect cars for emissions, they don't check anything else anymore which is awesome, so I smoked my side markers and turn signals and installed a set of alpena LED strips under them and I havent gotten pulled over yet lol

Where in the USA are you refering ? cause that sure is not the case in NY especially in NYC.... in fact any car made b4 1996 dont even do emissions test. but we are subjected to a saftey inspection

I live in NJ I think we have around 2 years already that they dont do the inspection only emissions, my father took my celica for inspection after I bought it from NY and the driver side headlight has half od the glass missing because it was in a small fender bender and the car passed without a problem, he told me they just hooked it up to the computer and it passed
