Are darkened tail lights legal?
I have a 2000 Civic Lx, 4 door sedan. I am interested in blacking it out. I want the tinted windows, darkened tail lights and darkened headlights and black 16 inch rims. My question is: How do I find out the legality of doing these things (except for the rims) to my civic in my state? I live in New York, how tinted can I get my windows? Can headlights be darkened or will I need new headlights?
I am new to this and any information you can give me would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

no. It's not legal, but I doubt you'll get much **** for it.. My brother has had tinted tails on his DA ever since he got the car and the cop pulled him over for the crack in his windshield. Said nothing about the tail lights
Window tint... I think you can contact your states DMV. They should tell you what's legal and what's not.
Headlights go the same for tail lights... tho I don't see why you'd want to make what lights up the road way darker.....

That gives you some laws about the window tinting and whatnot.
I'm not sure about the other lights though.
I know in Ohio, you're not bothered much by blacked out head/taillights. Window tint is checked depending on if you're driving like an ******* or not..
