Q: Private vehicle aftermarket light laws?
I live in the Pasco County area of Florida, and was wondering about aftermarket lighting. I wanted to make my car black and purple themed, so I want to add some lights to do cool photoshoots with them. I planned on doing purple underglow, and purple flashers/strobe lights. I read that purple lights were only allowed for funeral procession vehicles, so im assuming I can ditch that Idea. Then I was wondering about white and orange ones, like the ones on county trucks and such. Im thinking that maybe in the case of a roadside emergency, I could turn on the orange flashers like hazards to help me stand out if i need assistance, or just white strobes in place of purple ones. That way I can run a black and white theme instead. I understand that I cant use them on public roads while driving, but I do want them just for aesthetic purposes. The statute doesnt exactly clarify the lights that are legal for civilian vehicles, or at least I couldnt find anything specific for my case.
