OEM=Original Equipment. How can that be illegal?

For my $.02, I'd say probably illegal, I know Georgia it is. Like someone else said, depends alot on the LEO, but......

In a (serious) rear end accident, you can expect your tail lights to be an issue, and anything less than OEM could be a costly issue.

Also, like previously stated, its the reflector requirement thats not (usually) being met by the tinted or clear tail light covers.

Just sayin.....

In most places, NOT. But they don't worry too much about it as long as the light can effectively shine thru it.
