Is It Illegal to Modify the Rear Light Assembly of a Car?
1 Answers
Modifying the rear light assembly of a car is illegal. Vehicle light modifications require filing and approval before they can pass the annual inspection. If the rear light modification is done without filing and the vehicle is driven on the road, the traffic police may issue a warning and impose fines or deduct points. Here are the relevant regulations regarding car modifications: 1. Modifications within the specified scope: To make changes to a motor vehicle, modifications must be carried out within the scope specified by the traffic management department. This includes modifications to the body color, engine, fuel type, and chassis number. After submitting an application, the driver must obtain approval from the traffic management department before proceeding with the modifications. 2. No assembly or unauthorized modifications: No unit or individual is allowed to assemble a motor vehicle or modify the registered structure, construction, or features of a motor vehicle without authorization. 3. Modifications must be permitted by the traffic management department: Unauthorized modifications to the chassis, engine, suspension, transmission system, steering system, wheel rims, lights, body color painting, or external structure of a motor vehicle without the approval of the public security traffic management department, as well as any technical data of the motor vehicle that does not match the data announced by the State Council's motor vehicle product department, are considered modifications.
