We all mod cars and honestly, police can say any mod on the car is not legal... but it just seems that you are getting all the blame.
What are you going to do now since your car got a box 1 VI? How much is the govt trying to steal from you this time? Need a ride?
Sorry for you~
I think my sunroof is the last thing I worry about... I got caught for no DRL at night a while back... so really, police in richmond can ding u for any reason...
Sucks to live in richmond imo.

Thats so crazy... how many cars out there have tinted glass, stuff toys on windshield etc? Your Burger isnt even that big~! I've seen people putting the entire Sanrio Collection on their dash~ with fluffy steering wheel cover driving with a chiwawa~
And whats with the charge on your exhast? You mean you are getting sue and need to go to court or some sort????!
He remembers you when you are red, does that mean your car is in some kind of database? You MAY want to change your plates... or maybe call ICBC and see whats the deal~ just my 2c. You prolly spending a lot to pay off those VIs...sigh

i am sure their database has all sorts of pictures of my car,
and no! changing the plates doesn't work, it will always lead back to the records, and plates on my car usually don't last more then 6months...this time around i got lucky, but my car was in the paint shop for over 3 months.....
well i got charged for 3 things, blue puddle lights, white led and widen exhaust
dispute or not >?

aprox $550-600 this time i think, $300 on the tickets, $100 tow fee, $100 inspection and the service charges to get it insured again
sucks....there goes my rear disc brakes....sigh

I would dispute it. I talked to Richard (who owns a civic with LED undergrow) last night at the Kingsway Honda Event and he said as long as your cars are not moving with the ligts on, it "SHOULD" be fine. Also, there are a lot of people out there with the mods you done but don't get caught...
Dispute it first, and worst comes to worst, plea to teh judge that you are a student and cant pay such an expensive ticket.

Sorry, but you may not want to hear it, but you kinda bring it on yourself. I've NEVER been VI-ed. Probably because my car isn't as crazy as yours. If you don't want to keep getting pulled over, don't do such obvious modifications to your car.
I do feel for you, but again, it is kinda your own fault.
"erectile aneurism penis food". im gonna have to use that one. haha
felix, sucks about your ticket. i thought cali was bad but its the same here, any type of LED on a car is illegal unless they are dot.
that's what he said to me, and i agree, know and understand that the j's LED isn't DOT and isn't legal....but my puddle lights won't come on unless it's in PARK..so that i am going to dispute, as for widen exhaust, my exhaust is same size as the CLK55, so i am going to dispute that too

I think the widened exhaust infraction is due to having larger diameter piping, not just that you have a quad exhaust setup. Do you still have your cat on the car? That could also do it.
As for the questions about first box and VI, I'm going on a limb here and say that box 1 is as he stated is getting your car towed and plates removed. From what I've heard, you don't get it back until you remove those modifications. VI I'm guessing are the illegal infractions that you have on the car and will have to pay a fine for.
