every car had to have them in 68. Luckly for me my 67 doesnt have them but if it did I would have taken it to a shop that would have passed me. A $10 tip goes a long way

Install small LED lights on the ends of the front and rear bumpers in the right colors. I did this on my old 67 and it looked pretty good.

Either that or try another DMV that isn't as picky.

Food for thought...

If you remove the marker lights on a car that is supposed to have them. If say...somebody runs into you at night from the side and they say they didn't see you...Can the insurance co decline coverage because you removed the lights ? Will the other guys insurance co come after you based on you removing required safety devices ? I'm guessing yes. If your car had them i would leave them.

In NJ the DMV stations are all computerized. Once you fail, it is entered into the "system". Going to another station is a waste of time as they will only enter your VIN to find out when, where and what you failed for. Even if you go as if its your first time, they start off with entering the VIN. It would red flag right away that you've already attempted to go thru elsewhere.
Tough one.... I dont have anything to offer.....at least nothing thats legal.

I say CHEAT... Mount / inspect / Remove...

It's possible.
I mean anything is possible in civil court; but, with everything else taken into consideration, the marker lights won't make a nickels worth of difference in the outcome of the case.

We did a tractor trailer case a while back where a motorcycliste drove under a trailer at night, decapitating the driver.

Of course the plaintiff's counsel was trying to make a huge deal of the markings and lights on truck.
Yes, there were a couple of side markers missing and one piece of retro-reflective tape gone.

Then again, if you can't see a BMF tractor trailer in front of you sideways......that's what the jury thought as well:rofl:

In Ma. They checked my rear wiper to make sure it was working. I've never used it because I hate when I see a Tahoe with the rear window scratched from the wiper. Even though it was an option if its there it needs to work. Which is bull if you ask me. You don't even need a back window, it can be solid like panel van doors.
I bet they would check for markers here in Ma. if you got a gun hoe guy.

Some states don't require state run inspection for cars registered as antiques. I would look into that as well.

Your right Ron in Maryland you just send in for the plates. Nice!

I'm in Delaware and you have to go through the inspection lanes. A friend of mine told me he took his car through the inpection lanes with side marker lights, drivers side mirror and fake door handles taped to his car! It was hot and by the time he got into the building he had to keep his hand on the outside mirror because the double side tape was starting to give up the ghost!!!

thanks for all the input.
this coming from a guy with a car with a plane engine in it is funny/lol
