Red RokShots from my buddys at HighBeam lighting I plan on getting more to light up the whole underside of my rig

Whatever floats your boat mate.

Need more info, like what they are, where you mounted them, and how much did they cost.

Did you install them? Are they on relays? What do they do?

Better pics would help (cause all I see is red behind the grill, red light on the ground), beyond that :dunno:

You would have a ticket in like 5 minutes driving around with red lights in the grille in these parts ;)

They are hooked directly into my headlights mounted to a small frame section behind it

The lights are just additonal ones 

I plan on gettin four sets of 2 and mounting them in each wheel well 

got em for free in a giveaway 

the cops around here don't really care becuse the lights don't shine out on the road or other cars

Up in Dainternetguy's and my neck of the woods (er, open prairie?), it's not because it's a distraction, or because it's blinding or shining on the road or anything. It's because red lights are tail lights. Tail lights mounted on the front of your vehicle are a big no-no. Red lights also belong on emergency vehicles. Pretending to be an emergency vehicle is also a big no-no.

 

Also, hooking them directly into the headlights isn't the greatest of ideas, as the headlight switch and wiring is barely able to support the load from the headlights. Sure, they're nice for show, but it would definitely be better if they were wired separately from the headlights, with their own switch, so they can be turned off when they shouldn't be on.

Better put an on/off switch on those red lights on the front for use in parking lots and off-road, and also do some light reading starting with:

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_lighting which states:

 

The colour of light emitted by vehicle lights is largely standardised by longstanding convention, first codified in the 1949 Vienna Convention on Road Traffic^[2] and later specified in the 1968 United Nations Convention on Road Traffic.^[3] Generally, but with some regional exceptions, lamps facing rearward must emit red light, lamps facing sideward and all turn signals must emit amber light, lamps facing frontward must emit white or selective yellow light, and no other colours are permitted except on emergency vehicles.

 

and also page 4 on a FAQ written by a TN attorney general on tn.gov at http://www.tn.gov/attorneygeneral/op/2004/op/op170.pdf

 

Be careful out there and let us know how many citations you rack up.
