They were illegal to have back then unless you were an emergency vehicle of some description. Am not sure but it seems like this law has either been changed or they no longer bother enforcing it anymore. He did also get stopped for driving with his fog lights on when it wasnt foggy and the officer had a firm word in his ear about driving with fog lights on when there is no need, think this is something else that they no longer bother about, or so it seems. I was told many back then that the coloured side lights, under car lighting etc was fine for show purposes but illegal to use on the roads. Now it seems to be the norm for many cars
No don't think the laws been changed emzy its just that its not enforced with certain sections of the community
