I presume Acura isnt going to be challenged on the legality of it, lol thatd be rediculous so I think they just assume that from a certain distance, if it looks like 1 single light, that counts as 1, but the actual wording in the law doesnt specify that.
Honda/Acura has deep pocket. I'm sure they can bribe some people in the testing procedure to let them pass...
But heyyy if its from more distance, I'm sure my fog light and headlight can be consider only 2 lights. I don't get who makes these ridiculous only 4 lights.

How strict are the Po-Po about the forward facing lights? I mean, I understand the whole "lifted truck, rally, assert my presence" deal with lights, but for regular cars?

Been working on my buddy @Zero90 wiring for his new Pioneer AVIC-8000NEX head unit the past couple days. Just finished it up at work today and figured I'd share.

I always recommend solder & heat shrink whenever possible. It makes for a super reliable install & very clean. I went an extra step (because I'm all about mega clean/reliable) and used some wire loom, wire ties, and electrical tape to tidy it all up. Pulled out the pins from the harnesses that aren't needed for the BRZ as well so nothing extra would be open/lying around.

Enjoy! If you're OCD like me, you'll especially like this.

Usually they are in the Mid Atlantic Section in general. All of them in 1 thread would be a PIA

Bummer I gotta miss out on the activities this weekend. I'll be in Ohio at Hell City Tattoo Convention. Everything always falls on the same time for things I swear, haha.
