I thought they just had to be reflective... which most aren't. I always get nailed for my licence plate light burning out never the taillights.

must be at the furthest point of the vehicle, reflective, contain reverse, signal, brake lights.

and half the custom tails dont, so it is all up to the cop if they want to harrass you or be fine with it

ive been told they both have to have equal heights... however they can be slanted just have to be equal height.

i havn't been hassled yet. not reflective, no reverese lights. I don't think cops really look out for it since it doesnt seem like it'd be a common citation they look out for.
