DPS will pull you over in a heartbeat for anything about 8000K HID's or blue blinkers. The "pink" lights 
would even be pushing it.
Head lights are strait rice, and from what ive heard, 1 piece replacement lights dont fit nearly as well as two piece. If you want black, get aftermarket lightning heads tinted black.
No true double din headunit will fit in a 97-03 without trimming the housing in the dash.
Yuma huh? You should get some lobo badges too...

What I don't like about the lightning lights is how the outside of the corner lights is white/clear and not black/clear... you know what I mean?
There are some on ebay though that have the full black/clear outside edges though that I do really like.

yeah i know what you mean...that's why i don't have the black ones (other than my truck being blue, i thought the normal ones would look better)...but i think it's just the silicone they use.

as far as the HID "K" rating goes, that's just the temperature rating in kelvin; I'm not sure what color would be that high. I think most oem's use like 4300K (pure white, brightest i think). 10000K is pretty purple, which takes away light output. I'm also thinking about these tail lights...I like that they look close to stock:
