Oh yeah they are very legal in pretty much everywhere especially red and blue but if you use them for parking it cant be that bad. I know the police department I am a cadet for does not take kindly to those kind of show lights unless the car is parked.

Well I never use them on the road because in the day they aren't super visible and at night if I'm driving I used my headlights (and the headlights kind of wash them out). I mainly use them in parking lots and stuff.

RE: Headlight accents
heres an idea tho 
you got a alarm system?
get to the alarm brain.... and the LED wires.... cut the red led wire... and solder in a DIODE to keep any power from going back into the brain..... THEN with reconect the red led wire on the side of the alarm... BEFORE the diode... NOW with a 12volt relay wire it up like this......
the remote turn on wire is that wire from the diode... and the addictional accessories wire goes to your headlight accents.....
NOW IF ALL GOES GOOD..... and only thing im not sure about is the flashing... WITH it wired up that way.... now your headlights will also flash with the alarms armed led at least it should.....
i had something like them on my old jimmy i had.... but the moduals where wired up for that as well.. i thought that was realy cool..... forget those dinky tiny blinking leds.... i had the headlight leds flashing
they worked great till some water got inside thier control box and i guess fried the board
