So I had the truck state safety inspection done yesterday and was told the light hood mount light cannons were not legal in the state of VA. Yes or no..

Thoughts?

Yeah, I'd have to dig into the rules, but I'm sure a lot of the stuff we do technically is not road legal.

Funny you mentioned that. The tech unplugged them where they connect right next to the hing and I put the covers on. He passed it but was very critical of the cannons.

So did it pass? Next year just unmount them, unless you're going to dig through the rules. However, then you will be that guy and they will find something else to fail you on

He did pass it. The lights are plugged back in and the black covers are on until I am off road. I still think it is legal as long as the black covers are on. Just wanted to get a temperature check from you boys

Now I am thinking my KC's D3's in my bumper that are wired to one of the up lifter switches is not legal either because they are not wired to the low beams. Further more I think light operating as a pair need to be the same color. I have one clear and one Amber on each side.
