I have a pair of them on my black car in Oklahoma. Have had MANY police officers follow me with no problems. ~knock on wood~

I think in the spring i'll pick up a pair of the smoked tail-lights and cross my fingers.

I was thinking about it as well but I herd one of my friends saying that he got rear ended with smoked tail lights and he got the ticket and so far i have been rear ended twice in the few months I have had my car so for now I am going to wait. He hasn't got any tickets for just having them just the one time he got rear ended. Personally I would get them on my car but I am going to wait until I am not a teenager and my insurrence goes down...just to be safe

Hella smoked tails are technically non-compliant with US DOT regulations because the A6 will no longer have a red side reflector (which is built into the factory tail lamp). You could get away with any potential "issue" with law enfocement if you keep the reflectors that come in the box with the smoked tails in the glove box or trunk. If you get pulled over, you can just say that you just installed these, and you were just waiting for the mounting hardware from the factory to mount the reflectors.
I have had NO issues with my Hella smoked tails, but others have.

It dont matter if your a teenager or not, the person in back of you cant see your tail lights. Your homeboy got the ticket because if you cant see the person in front of you tail lights, and in his case, he had something blocking his tail lights....in the police eyes, you dont have tail lights, which is a fine. Yea, it might look good or whatever, but you gotta think about other drivers too.
