They're legal on the Toyota, illegal on the Contour.

He's joking about the Toyota.

In most states it is illegal to show anything but a yellow or white light to the front and yellow, red or white to the rear.

CA is usually more restrictive then most. I would bet you would be subject to tickets/fines for showing a blue light in the front.

Read the package again. It say FOR SHOW USE ONLY NOT FOR STREET USE or something to that effect, just like my Tire Flys say.

I believe that they are only legal on Hugos and AMC Pacers in Texas.

  I believe that in most states, any blue lighting visible from the exterior of a vehicle is specificaly reserved for law enforcement vehicles.  I have specifically heard of someone facing misdemeanor charges as a result of having blue windshield washer lights.  Apparently, it was construed as a form of impersonating a police officer.
