I'll have to dig up the specific articles I read pertaining to HID on cars which weren't available from the factory with it. And what does where I live have anything to do with what I see on the road? Have you ever been here? No. You don't have one clue as to what drives around here. It's not like I'm in the boonies, after all. Sure, it may not be SoCal, LA, whatever... but there are still some damn nice cars rolling around. Also, what do you know about my car? Do you know what parts are on it? What's been done to it? What I think about quality parts? Not a damn bit, cocksucker. Your childish, "I'm always right" attitude shouldn't have gotten you this far in life, truthfully.

Did you mean the NHTSA?
FMVSS 108 Covers vehicle lighting. NHTSA does not approve light designs. The Manufactures self certify. Theoretically ixfxi can self cert his retros as new manufacture. I do not know if he does. But they are not illegal until NHTSA says they are.

What you have to understand is that the Issue with HID "Kits" is totally different then Retrofits. Kits are illegal cause you can't replaces a Halogen Bulb with a Xenon bulb. Retrofitting the whole Reflector and Lens assembly that uses Xenon Bulbs does not apply to this judgment.
