Slim-Miser™ LED Series Amber LED Mod on VW Jetta

Two Whelen Slim Miser amber/amber units placed in the rear window, left and right of the 3rd break light. 60 Brilliant 5mm LEDs make this a "krazy" mod. It really looks cool in the dark, but unfortunately is not street legal in Massachusetts. It's only for show.

haha thats why i like illinois completely legal to have amber no matter what u use them for lol but idc i can legally have blue which is way better just look at my vid haha

I looked at your vid and agree! Those blue lights are very nice. You are right. Way better than the amber. Are you kidding - they are completely legal in IL even in privately owned vehicles?

Just wondering how you wired these to run together simultaneously? Thanks..

Dual car power outlet!!! Dual power supply cigarette lighter splitter for electronic gadgets. You need 2 plugs anyway, since it's two separate units - then when you plug the splitter in, both Slim Misers run together.

@sqhschief I had no problems with law enforcement in West TN about my dashlight or my surface mount lights...To err on the side of caution I wouldnt use them unless you are stopped

[sqhschief]

@ki4jmj So it sounds like it might not be illegal to install them in the window areas, but I'm not sure.

[sqhschief]

@ki4jmj TCA 55-9-402(a)(1) No nonemergency vehicle shall operate or install emergency flashing light systems, such as strobe, wig-wag, or other flashing lights within the headlight assembly or grill area of the vehicle. TCA 55-9-402(b)(1) No non-emergency vehicle shall operate or install emergency flashing light systems such as strobe, wig-wag, or other flashing lights in tail light lamp, stoplight area, or factory installed emergency flasher and backup light area. That's what I'm referring to.

@sqhschief No its not.I lived in West TN for all of my life until recently..I had Amber Leds all over my pickup to use for storm spotting and chasing..Not illegal at all

[sqhschief]

In Tennessee this is illegal unless you work for a construction company. Which sucks.

[GoManGo3675]

Red and blue... you might be asking for some trouble (at least a little bit!). LOL.

[GoManGo3675]

Yes in IL Amber lights are completely legal in POV's. You dont need any explanation at all as to why you have the if a cop asks you. I used to have Amber and i got pulled over three times cause of them (cause they were LED) and just showed then they were amber and they left me alone
