dark tint is NOTHING compared to what they will hit you with if they consider you "impersonating an emergency vehicle"

I say BAD IDEA!!!

stick to cool white LEDs which give a very cool white (no yellow, on the blue end) light. you will have a good color and don't risk getting your car truck impounded

The white led's look pretty good. I would rather go with HID's and keep the amber corners so your turn signals are somewhat visible.

I have Blue LED's inside my blazer above the rear windows and I was driving home with them on at like 2am and got stopped. The windows are real dark so you could really only see them from the front.
Got a warning and was told not to run them while driving. He complimented the loud pipes and asked what I had done as far as mods. But the lights where a no no.

Get someone in a bad mood and they'll stop you for the lights, and then start writing you up for everything else.
