AnjoO - It all depends on the cop who pulls you over, i had the head traffic cop for the southwest victoria region say that as long as they aren't red at the front, or white at the back, flashing or something else, they're fine. Another said that they're fine, just not whilst driving, another said no altogether. It's really a pot luck thing.

And drift_limo, we were discussing the legality of LED's, not the sexuality of electrical goods.

neons in vic are allowed.

any form of lighting (wiper lights, neos, underbar lights etc) most NOT dazzle another driver, as stated by the ADR documents.

so you can have undercar neos, but they musn't flash and the officer must not deem them to dazzle other drivers, or cause a distraction, ie: pulsing colours

I just had a quick skim read of the Vicroads VSI on lighting and lamps.

It appears as if you can have neons, but the ADRs surrounding what colours are permitted where etc are well beyond what I'm going to get into unless I'm doing it myself (which I'm not).

If you want to be way too fast and a little furious, RTFM yourself.

Firstly. allow me to say, that moderators are not your personal secretaries.

Please post threads in the appropriate section of the forum.

This is a local question, and as such should be posted in your state section (where it has now been moved to)

No soup for you, this is incorrect.

From memory (so don't scream at me if it's wrong, I got bored with answering this question after about the 47th time it was asked) ...

You can't have red or blue because it emulates/falsely misrepresents the colours used by emergency services.

No white lights are to be visible from the rear of the vehicle (other than reverse lights)

No red lights are to be visible at the front of the vehicle

      Unpeeling the Orange

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
