    Knowing the law and following the law is more trivial than you think then. If signing a paper to get a permit to drive concludes that you KNOW the law, then nobody, including police, should have a permit. Laws change by the day, and as you can see by all the research I have been doing, it it NOT stated clearly for us to find. Makes you wonder just how many of the DMV manuals are actually up to date even.

    I was just about to put an catback on my WRX, that is even approved by Subaru, but this whole ordeal is making me think twice.

    And I agree, it is the responsibility to know the laws, but, if the administration is unable to provide literature, or a means for us to keep up to code, I do not think we can be held responsible.

    Hey WG, I wouldn't sweat it. Go ahead with that catback. I think you just ran into the wrong cop on the wrong day. I say this because in 7 years I've been pulled over a few times in My 3000GT and once in my VX which both have 20% tint that you can barely see through and not a word was said about it. I've seen (and heard) many a ricer with cops in the same general area and have never seen them pulled over for it either.
