you can't change the colours of them as they are blue LED's aswell


and Ginge - you are allowed flashing yellow lights on a car as part of a hazard warning system (IE - when towing another vehicle or a large trailer etc etc)

Yes you are, I check this out when I had the idea for making a road going pace car.

You are allowed any colour you like except blue as you can be done for impersonating a police officer.

Orange, white, green, yellow, red, whatever all fine but not blue or anything a shade of blue.

And you can have them on the car, but like neons, can't be used when in motion. (This also includes when towing cars!) Flashing lights such as hazzard indicators or light bars and strobes can only be used when the car is stationary or off road.

its actually illegal in THIS country for a car to have his hazzard lights on when being towed, in europe its fine but not here,,,,,,,,, hence they turn em off when moving UNLESS there causing/hazzard,,,,,,,, and then it has to be PROPER hazzard beacons
