Don't you have enough lights on your car already
P.S.
Its "squirt", not "skirt".

just to clarify, those blue leds ARE "illegal", neons arent because you cant see INTO the actuall light source (think red and possibly blue neons may be illegal, as they can conside it "impersonatingg an emergancy vehicle", and also could represent a stop/brake light), but i have ben pulled up by cops LOTS, with my neons on (i didnt turn them off, otherwise they know i know i could possibly have known they r illegal), maybe total off 15 cops have never said a thing, one said "ow, btw, i could see your front neons when i was behind you, just keep them out of site".
and also, for more pressure, either get one with smaller holes or get a slightly bigger pump for it (they are tiny anyway, and cost probably $15,

bduff- i can confirm the first comment is yes. i used to have the washers blue and even when i got pulled over i got a stern talking to by the senior member re: being illegal who threatened me with a notice, so i know from experience as a driver not a member.
red and blue lights anywhere but in the interior are illegal and millsy the cops in geelong might have bigger things to worry about, just hope that you dont get pulled over by a TMU (traffic management unit) police member coz they will give u a penalty notice, that is if you have blue or red.
whether neon or LED doesnt matter, if you can see anything more than the glow, its 'distracting' and illegal regardless of colour.

So your saying you can legaly have neons as long as there not directly seen ( such as hide under car )
I always thought they were ilegal no matter what unless the engines off

You can have them on the car but you can not use them unless in a car show or parked away from the street and the car is not in use.
