For decades I have noted the caveat, "illegal for street use in California"
in descriptions of accessory auto lights. I understand why California
might want stricter emission regulations but, headlights?? Does anyone
know why this is? Does it have any significance in any other states (like
food products that meet Pennsylvania Dept of Agriculture regulations are
deemed to satisfy all other states' codes)?
Just curious, Russ Wilson
