Legal or not legal tail lights?

[5150]

And anyways, your username is 5150, so either a Van Halen reference, or a direct reference to Eddie's sig amps (I've owned 2)

Both

I used 5150 amps since pretty much when they came out. And in my book EVH is God!!!

Nice! My first was back from when they came out, then got a II a while back (but didn't like it as much as my first one).

EVH is one of my Gods... but he is right up there with my other faves.

Just saving up for the 5150mk3. I tested one about a month back and totally fell in love with it. More bottom end then your insides can cope with. Makes your balls shake

Makes for very interesting AND very confusing reading. Like our building laws really.

NZ excels at arcane and pedantics laws to protect us from life. We will be fencing all rivers and beaches very soon.

I don't think this is particular to NZ, at one company I worked for in the UK we weren't allowed to put up Xmas decorations, in case it offended people with other religious beliefs. I did notice those people of other faiths weren't in any way offended by the Xmas holidays they got...

But back to my mission, I spotted the guy on Dominion Road, followed him all the way up to K road, down Nelson St towards the CBD and then... along Fanshaw to the onramp of the motorway, where he was heading North... so no I won't be pestering him about his tail light set up anytime soon...

Love to hear that Mk3 though, still haven't heard one in the flesh/metal, although heard plenty of youtube clips. Does sound very big on the bottom end, which is exactly what the PV amps lacked...

There's a 675 that passes me on the way to work most mornings which has a similar set-up but it is significantly easier to see the indicator/brake light seperation than the unit in the vid, so maybe just not buy that particular one?

Not the bloke on the gold 675 with the grey Ixon jacket and the Oxford tail pack heading into Auckland on the southern is it?

Nah it's a white 675... figure he's coming from the Mt Eden sort of area and threading his way to the motorway through the CBD.

Well it’s not me then...
But I do have one, so if whoever wants to have a look just PM me.

Still have the info from where I brought it from too.

yes well common sence tell you just looking at them to close well there is no distance between

I am looking at getting one of those integrated tail light units for my 675 Daytona, but before I commit I would like to know if these are legal in NZ from WOF point of view (as far as indicators are concerned). Sellers assures me that they are DOT approved.

Any help would be appreciated

Well if I understand that mess of a sentence correctly, then I say bollocks. I've certainly had no WoF issues with mine.

I think your missing the point here,

No one indicates anymore.....thats soooo 1995!!!

[brett7777]

and y'all are gettin your wofs at the wrong places!!!

This sorta stuff is totally up to the inspector, very subjective in other words.

Best to find an inspector who checks the important safety stuff, but isnt anal
