-Tail lights other than red (24600 VC).
-Illegal brake lights. Brake lights on vehicles newer than 1979 must be red (24603 VC). (Vehicles older than 1979 may be red or yellow.)
-Lack of rear reflectors. Two red reflectors are required on the rear of cars and trucks (24607 VC).
- Tail lights that incorporate a bulb with a red tint or coating. In general, custom tail lights that incorporate a clear outer shell and red inner lens are legal (24011 VC). If they don't incorporate reflectors, they must be added to the vehicle (24607 VC).
-Tail lights that are too dim, washed out or show yellow, white or other colors (24600 VC).
-Illegal color of side marker lights. If present, must be yellow in the front and red in the rear (25106, 24003 VC).
In a nutshell yea they are illegal.
I tinted my side markers as dark as my car though.. cant even tell they are there so i doubt ill get **** for them. Im gonna tint my taillight but just so they appear to be a darker red rather than the bright red they are right now
