    the winning mod to this would be to hook up one of those sensors that you see on pro photographer strobes that let all the big strobes slave to the flash on the camera. when the device detects the flash of the speed camera, black out.

    of course, that would defeat the whole safety purpose of speed cameras, and that would be wrong, so just forget i said anything. #speedcameras

    Don't tell these guys about Hokey-Spokes. They're for bicycles but I'm sure they could be easily modded for cars. You can program all sorts of weird-ass designs and even text. My Coupe Z wheels are all going to say, "PAH!!!" as I roll down the street missing the rear-bumper.

    I'll take two. Since Wisconsin is one of a few States that requires front and rear plates. #speedcameras

    To bad it just blacks it out. How much for one that makes it look like a totally different plate? Or better yet, replaces it with the Laughing Man logo? #speedcameras

    I could see this in an application that you need to light the tires as you inspect or change a flat...but I agree ...FAIL.

    Along with that HORRIBLE advertising, scrolling, voting panel truck that was driving up Street Rd some nights ago. Motion, video and light on a panel van, moving??? If I were a cop, I issue 4 moving violations and my nightstick hidden in the lowest sphincter... #gadgets

    Using those lights will ensure that a badly dressed Olympian will magically show up to pose for pics beside your murdered-out 90's Tiburon. #gadgets

    Hey! I saw the Atlanta skyline in the beginning of the video.

    But really, just another tacky and tasteless car mod.

    Sorry MotionLites, I'll keep my cash in my pocket and you can keep your flash off of my ride. #gadgets

    Say what you want. I think these are pretty cool. They'll provide an outlet for my frustration with all of the fart-can Civics.

    But can I get some which spin while stopped in a 22" size for my 1982 Oldsmobile Delta 88?

    Why is it cool technology, like LED's, get molested by common people.

    I point to the Internet as a second example. HID headlights is a third. #gadgets
