Black light.....??? Yes or No?

I know this is a lame question and everyone has there own oppinion.... But i was wondering what the consensous was about black lights in our FORDS. I obtained a black light for a car from a buddy.... And i temporarily put it in for a floor board glow... My windows are tinted so from outside its not even noticeable. But when you open the doors it looks really good in my opinion... The floor pretty much glows on one side. I want to get another one to make both sides glow... However, I do not know if this is too RICER. I dont wanna get nagged on by my buddies that im lame cause i put in some black lights in my truck... You guys all know how that goes.

Any input would be great,
Thanks.

I can understand that. Having lived in AK for 4 years I know you need all the light you can get around December! Really though I think there may be a safety factor here, I think it would hinder your vision of outside somewhat. Also there may be a law on the books, I doubt though.
Heck, try it! Thats what modding is all about. If you don't like it you can always sell it to "The Great AK Bush Co"

Yeah, I have it mounted right now where my sun visors are currently. From outside it looks really slick because my windows are tinted and the black light sets it off a little because my deck also has some black light in it aswell as some red. I figure, if they dont like it. Tough. Thanks for the input. The Bush Company.... LOL...
They take anything. =)

RED!

I would actually perfer a red light if I could find one... The main reason being that my truck is red. I think I am going to install the blue and stick with it for a while.. If I dont like it I can always get a different color.
I will take some pics when im done.

I find the word RICER offensive. How about calling it white trash hillbilly redneck? You white guys are so offensive that you don't ever see it coming from your own mouth. BTW, any change to stock lights is a RICER mod.

If you are a white guy then I was already 99.9% sure based on:
1. You own a US made truck.
2. State abbreviation is AK (probably missed the last two k's).

If not, then you must be something other than Asian because as an Asian who eats rice as much as you eat tater tots...ok, how about we call it TATER TOT instead of RICER. For example, will the Confederate Flag on my hood make me look like a TATER TOT???

Speaking of trash coming from a trash hole. Now you wouldn't be stereotyping would you? I see no one on this thread that remotely qualifies as being White Hillbilly Redneck's from the Confederate region. Unless of course you mean AK.

Look on the map and see if AK is beside OK, if it is go get yourself an ACLU lawyer, sue a white guy, because he's obviously holding you back and have the OK academic standards lowered so that you can pass geography.

Signed
Tater Tot Eating Confederate Anglo-Saxon Caucasion Redneck Hillbilly White American.

Or as I prefer....AMERICAN

Its about the Trucks!

if you are looking for red , you might want to try LED's . They put out a lot of light for their size and red will not destroy your night vision. Do a search on LED's ... Sharky99 is the man to talk to about LED's , he's done a great mod with them ... several others have done mods with them also , but I don't recall the names right off hand.
