yeah about HID's, no aftermarket kits are dot approved whether they are in a projector housing or not. just cars that have them from the factory are legal.
that's interesting about the candle power stuff. my friend actually got pulled over the other day when it was so foggy you couldn't see 10 yards in front of you because he had extra fog lights on.
i've never been pulled over for them but i just cut them off when i see a car coming or just have two of them turned on on the low beam fog light setting so it's legal. i no longer have factory fog lights since i replaced them with piaa atp lights. they are too bright to be on all the time.

i still use mine, i have my factory fogs and heads and then my Hella 700FFs on my roof and my 5" long range lights on my bullbar. soon ill have another set of Hellas up top and i have a set of Hella optilux 1450s sitting on my desk right next to me waiting to be reinstalled. thinking i might use them as a back up light though.
