they did mine while ON the car.... they were afraid to brake some clips on it or something..... looks clean another thing.... if u can, upgrade the parking lights to the same bulb used on the brake lights.... that way the light will go through a whole lot better..... unless u like it how it is..

the law according to fla statues
" Any vehicle may be equipped and, when required under this chapter, shall be equipped with a stop lamp or lamps on the rear of the vehicle which shall display a red or amber light, visible from a distance of not less than 300 feet to the rear in normal sunlight, and which shall be actuated upon application of the service (foot) brake, and which may but need not be incorporated with one or more other rear lamps. An object, material, or covering that alters the stop lamp's visibility from 300 feet to the rear in normal sunlight may not be placed, displayed, installed, affixed, or applied over a stop lamp. "

during the night it doesn't affect that much, but during the day the smoked tail lights if they are really dark you usually can barely see the brake lights come on which reflects to the law's saying on "covering that alters the stop lamp's visibility from 300 feet to the rear in normal sunlight may not be placed"

and I do see people get pulled over for them in SoCal.

if you look at Fred/rareamg's sig, I think that's the darkness I would do if i smoke my taillight.
