I'm planning out an A-Pillar Light project, and found that Michigan requires this type of off-road light to be covered when on public roads. It also appears to vary by state.
I found this to be sorta surprising, given the number of Jeeps and other vehicles I see running around with uncovered lights mounted in various spots. Therefore, I figure there is a risk level I'm willing to accept, if the probability of being cited is low - unless I'm doing something stupid, and they add that onto whatever reason I was actually stopped for.
Do I need to include "Is there a cover available?" into my purchase decision for the lights I'm going to mount? This would be a bummer, because the lights I have been narrowing down on DON'T have a cover available (at least as far as I can tell).
So, I ask any fellow Michigan forum folks... Have you, or have you ever even heard of someone in Michigan, getting pulled over or cited with uncovered off-road lights as the primary violation?
