Although not clearly stated on the brochure, at the time of my purchase, the manufacturer and repair department was located in California. Contact the manufacturer for more current information.

No, these are not SAE compliant, and for good reason... they will blind people. Real fog lights are supposed to be used with low beams as supplemental light to the low beams. Driving lights provide supplemental light to high beams, but cannot legally be used with low beams. These are bright lights with a poorly defined beam pattern, so you can only use them with high beams, but they are not great for that.

The CARB (California Air Resources Board) has not certified these kits for California usage. Most of these kits come from China and the manufacturers are not interested in going through the certification process.

Unless you live in California, DONT! Warranty requires return to factory at your expense and these units do break due to their cheap construction!

Keith Kreider, I will have to contact the manufacturer to know for sure, however, I suspect it is because there is a California Proposition 65 Warning on the system. Customer Service TheBetterBuy

I use it as a headlight in California but never checked out the legality question. It is much brighter than what it replaced providing much improved visibility.

If the unit does not specify that it is CA legal, then it's not and cannot be shipped into CA. Stage 1 AFE products are usually CA legal.

Some manifold can't be ship to California so if this one say not for sale in California then they won't send it there. Look for the one is legal to cali.

do not know the answer to your question, but it says in the manual that in california, new small off road engines and large spark ignited engines less than or equal to 1.0 liter must be designed, built, and equipped to meet the state's stringest anti-smog standards.

@ Derek ... No no no. This is *NOT* CA (California) compliant. Not a typo.It means it can't be manufactured in California, can't be sold with a house, can't be included as an apartment furnishing, possibly other legal limitations.

Bear in mind this is 49 state legal (not legal in CA). We are reluctant to answer these types of questions as we are not professional mechanics. We advise you visit Edelbrock's web site. They have excellent customer service and are more equiped to answer your quesiton than us.

Hi David, your good to go. It's not Cali exempt. I would recommend getting the unchip or some kind of tune to calibrate the air sensor. The computer is going to keep reading the stock air flow no matter if you have the Afe intake installed. Something they don't tell you before buying the aftermarket air intake or exhaust systems.

They are illegal to operate on any road in the US (State and Federal law) or any European nation. It will blind other drivers. They do not meet SAE, ECE, or DOT safety regulations nor are they marked as such. Do not use them in any capacity other than as work lights, they are not bright enough or have a good pattern for high or low beams and would be a waste. I use them to optionally illuminate as I back up and they do not come on automatically. Only use them manually.

They are battery operated and react to motion. They are very touchy lol they are not legal in my state though
