Aftermarket pole lights and foglight

[Aaronlkl]

Does anyone knows if changing stock pole light & forlights to Philips 4300K legal or rather able to pass annual inspection?

No problems for pole and head..Go white for pole to play safe...head don't above 4.3k ....Crystal vision ok, but not dimond 5000k

Lights will never cause you to fail inspection. Your lights can fail but it will not affect your pass/fail status.

Yes, everything pass but lights fail is still a pass. Unless something has changed :P

If i m not wrong,it is still 4300k limit,but from that bro says,though fails but still can pass overall cause only lights mah,wonder is it how he means? :)

Yes, your headlights will get a fail but you can still get overall pass provided the important ones are passed like window tinting, emissions, etc.

 

Basically headlights is a non vital component.

Depends, Does ur car comes with factory fitted HID? If yes, LTA only allow stock 4.3k HID..But i find 6k daylight white quite nice. If ur car comes with halogen, den it is a no no to convert to HID

I find most of the Civic FD comes with HID for head, but yellow halogen for pole..Look damn ugly.

So if ur ride is not fitted with factory HID,and u change to aftermarket HID 6000k headlight, will u fail or pass overrall?

"light fail is still a pass".

But they can hold your cert until you replace the light and ask u to come back again to let them verify.

I think you will pass overall but not the lights. Better don't risk. Btw if ur car does not comes with projector, i urge u not to install as it will cause unnecessary glare to other road user.
