Just got a ticket for improper equipment....

Well I just got a ticket for having "blue" side markers? I was like WTF dude they're white. He was like I don't give a **** what color they are they aren't amber. What a dick I've been riding around for 2 weeks with no problems and a whole bunch of compliments. It sux I just replaced them with some 194 amber LEDs from AutoZone.... I wish it was a fix ticket but this guy was a complete dick... Oh well Guess he was just made b/c he's rolling in the KIA on the weekends and someone half is age is driving a car thats 3 yrs of his salary!!!!

You cant have lights on your car that resemble blue anywhere on your car; as well as red in the front. Post pics so we can see how white they are

In my state "cool under glow" is legal, white/blue side markers aren't.

Getting a ticket for lights (or any illegal mod) is such a waste of time and $$! Not worth the hassle. Stay stock, no worries!
