Not in a Saab, please. Neon under the car is also a no-go. Apart from looking crap, making you look like a loser and attracting a significantly greater number of winged bugs, you're likely to blind other drivers. The refraction of blue light is different to white light. Even though they might be street-legal, they're dangerous; both for you and for other drivers. I'm serious!
