Thank you. So the tow hook license plate shouldn't be an issue as long as its up there?
& I appreciate your opinions. I agree that my previous tinting was too dark. Also, to your second and third points, I know its not original but isn't it supposed to be what I like? & I'm not trying to make it look like there's no lights in there.
The tow hook plate should be fine.
As for the rest I was speaking to the group in general and giving the reasons I have thought of why people tint their lights. But in general its just a bad idea.
Please remember that you are not the only driver on the road, so I say yes, it is about what you like, but within reason. Making a car, any car, hard for others to see is dangerous, just as are other distractions. Texting, watching video's, talking on a cellphone, listening to excessively loud music all come to mind and are in the same category, IMO.
When you (any "you") as a driver are irresponsible, you take other people's lives in your hands and that's arrogant.
Ask yourself, how would I feel if I were responsible for killing somebody... let's say a 5 yr old riding home with his/her mother?
Driving is a dangerous business and I think many people lose sight of that. I have seen it all too often and lost friends because either they were irresponsible, or someone else was. It only takes a second to change the lives of many forever.
That's the point I was trying to make here.
As for turn signal colors, and I'm pretty sure this is a universal law: They can only be white if they were original equipment to the car, such as in a '57 Chevy. I'm pretty sure all forward facing signal lights have been amber/yellow since 1968 or '69.
