BLUE DOTS another thing the cops were giving out tickets for this past season, they are 'illegal" in Ontario!!!!! I didn't know that till a few owners got "dinged"

Sorry to go off topic. Pete there is a section of the Highway Traffic Act which they must be applying. I do not believe blue dots in themselves are illegal, there is no way a law would be written for that, however, the HTA only permits Police vehicles to display red and blue flashing lights from the front and/or rear of a vehicle. This is a big stretch but obviously a way to hassle the hobbyists and must be the section they are citing on. 

Until yesterday I had an NOS set of '59 taillight lenses in boxes but they got snapped up at the swap meet I was at. Still have four '58's.

THE HTA says you must have one, yes one brake light red in colour on the outside edge of the car, so I suyppose that is the section you refer to. Complete BS.

I remember guys getting ticketed for blue dots in the 1980's so this isn't anything new.

 since forever

sec 62 HTA goes through the light reqirements at length..

white and amber lights only, visible to the front,

red and white lights only , visible to the rear,(plate light must be white)

green,anber,red lights visible from the side if contained within a side maker light,

anything that coats, covers, causes any other colour to be given off other then above

is prohibited on the highway, so your neon tubes are only for parking lot use

... just put black elecrical tape (cut nicely of course) over the blue dots.
