Tail Light Covers
Are tail light covers legal?
Accesspeed sells mostly DOT-approved tail light covers. However, there is a DOT requirement that they have a certain light output during braking and turn signals, as well as reflection properties marking the vehicle in the dark when light hits it. Anything that you do to darken the taillamps reduces the required light output, which could make it illegal in some states.
