    license plate lights

    twice now I have been pulled over with the cop saying license plate light is out. this last time I got out of the car showed him it is not out. I have cleaned the lens. just wondering if anyone else has had the same problem or if anyone has upgraded or change license plate light to something else.

    Never had that problem. I upgraded to LEDs. Not because I needed them, I was just bored.

        Mental note....dont move to Iowa LOL

        Some areas are simply worse then others as Ive owned one minitruck after another with no kind of tag lights to speak of. Odd though that cleaned and functioning your tag lights still do not seem to work good. I would think that 2 lights mounted right above the tag would put off plenty of light

          the standard bulb for the tag light is a 194 bulb

          try using a 2825 bulb, same size/shape but much brighter

          or a W5W in other brands

            You'd think that two lights would make enough light to show it. could the cop just be using it just to pull me over. Is the accord the new drug dealer car or what.

              I got stopped Saturday night a week ago....was doing the speed limit and being good, just KNEW he was there to hassle me.....come to find out one of my new HID ballasts was bad....was driving down the road with one headlight and he ended up being cool, even brought a flashlight to help me peek under the hood.

                see that is how a cop should be cool nice and helpful. they are here to serve and protect. not write tickets and just arrest people. but I have had cops pull me over for speeding and was all nice about it and talk to me like a real person. even if it took them 5 mile to catch me.(lol)

                    Most cops will treat you as you treat them, be respectful and polite and HONEST. If you were caught speeding dont even TRY to deny it. Its amazing how many tickets we can get out of but there are the jerks out there that are just plain mean and rude and we cant do anything but suck it up and move on. Met one of these guys last year in Panama City beach....he apparently was well know for hating bikers....was not too fond of body dropped Mazda pickups either! lol And yes....TWO tickets....both were crap and had it been any other cop i would have not gotten them.
