Safety tip for when you get here: Florida does NOT require a signal for a lane change, only when you are changing direction.

As far as undercar lights goes, I believe you cannot have the neon bulb itself visible (too distracting, makes sense) and colours I am not sure. I started looking for it on the FL DMV online, but never found anything (and got tired of looking, heh). Saki? Jax?

Thanks for the tip. I understand the visible light thingy deal. I'm pretty sure I can't have any pretty flashing stuff unless I'm on private property. Thanks for looking on FL DMV. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack especially if you don't know what exactly you're looking for. Oh another thing I've been wondering is can you have all blacked out windows in FL? In Illinois we can only have the back windows done.

Florida State Statutes For Motor Vehicles

§ 316.2953 -- Side windows; restrictions on sunscreening material.

A person shall not operate any motor vehicle on any public highway, road, or street on which vehicle the side wings and side windows on either side forward of or adjacent to the operator's seat are composed of, covered by, or treated with any sunscreening material or other product or covering which has the effect of making the window nontransparent or which would alter the window's color, increase its reflectivity, or reduce its light transmittance, except as expressly permitted by this section. A sunscreening material is authorized for such windows if, when applied to and tested on the glass of such windows on the specific motor vehicle, the material has a total solar reflectance of visible light of not more than 25 percent as measured on the nonfilm side and a light transmittance of at least 28 percent in the visible light range. A violation of this section is a noncriminal traffic infraction, punishable as a nonmoving violation as provided in chapter 318.

The reasoning behind this is, when Mr Policeman walks up on your vehicle, they need to be able to see in and make sure you are not holding a weapon. Its to protect you as well as them.

I'm figuring on chrome since she's already set up w/ a lot of chrome. I'm stuck between (hehe) hot pink or blue. I found LED 3M mirrors but want to see what they look like ON a car but can't find a pic.

I have a spare set if you want them. No power mirrors, never installed. $20?
EDIT: Oh yea. The LED is amber.

Hold that thought! I'll have to ask dh. Are they the kind w/ the arrow on the mirror or the lights up on top or whereever?
