ya i know a state cop and he says any underglow is illegal, but then talked to my local police two of them to be exact and basically they said no red or white and no oscillating, but then they also said they really dont worry bout it unless sometihng is wrong like speeding

o u also have to watch out, no blue in the city, cause the cops use blue instead of red, cause it cuts through the fog.
