The switch is only covered under the 36000/3 year warranty so it would not matter, but the taillights are plug in play so no cutting or anything. A lot of the car is only covered under the 36000/3 year warrenty it seems, I thought it was 60000/5 year on most of the parts but nothing can be done about it, no reason to complain. But yeah, if I were to get pulled over, I would show them the ticket for sure, I just do not want to be put in that situation but I should be good to go. It is just a pain in the ass, it may just be easier to pay the $116 and call it a day, I wouldn't doubt the court date would fall on a BIG test day. And I am sick
