I've tried google but I don't know what to search for. The government sites don't help at all. I tried emailing someone in the DMV but it didn't go through or noone cares or w/e. I'll keep looking but does anyone have any pointers on things to look for??

You can do the head lights, but you cannot drive with them on at any time during the day on public roads. Sux dunnit?
