NYS Registered A&C Cobras
Did anyone have trouble with the light package from A&C passing the NYS certification process. I read that some of the turn signal lenses were not DOT approved.

Hi
I am getting ready to take mine for inspection very soon. I was told that as long as they are visible from the side, which the A&C ones are, it should be OK? |
I talked to Tom at the Albany DMV yesterday. He said my lights would not be ok because of the lack of DOT/SAE numbers. He said the only other way is a AMICA certification. Factory Five lights come with that paper work in order to pass NYS Certification.
Wish I knew what was up. From pictures it looks like other A&Cs have gone through with the stock lights. |
what lights specifically? probably the four rear lights and the two front marker lights?
|
I have yet to have an inspector look for the DOT markings on tail lamps or front turn laps.....You can get the lenses with the markings from some suppliers.
|
The lights are front turn, rear turn and brake, and license plate . Its not the inspector I have a problem with. Its the paper work from the State I have to fill out and send in to get a inspection date. On that paper it asks for , among several other things, DOT/SAE markings and lens colors for all lights on vehicle including back up lights which my car does not even possess at this time.
When I talked with Tom in Albany, the guy all this paperwork goes to, the guy running the VIN process, he said I had to provide the info in order to get an inspection appointment. With out #s no appointment. His suggestion to me was get lights with proper numbers on them. I still say other guys have got away with those lights in NYS. I just dont know how right now. |
