Can these be used instead of the orange triangle for a civilian vehicle? I see people asking about DOT regulations however I don't know if they apply

Yes, for any vehicle, Civilian. Or as an ad on for a commercial vehicle. ( commercial vehicles require the 3 triangles).

I don't know about the applicable DOT regs on this, I bought it because it is a very safe, affordable, useful and convenient way to signal a road hazard.

I don't think they have any specific approvals, but they work great as aux lights on my sons on road bike. Not sure why you could not use them, just make sure that they are aimed properly so you don't blind the on coming traffic and you wont be questioned.

I do not think so. You need both eyes on the road. It would be OK for your passenger to use.

Yes they can. I had mine sandblasted and painted the same color as my jeep. Looks awesome....

As long as its a 12 volt system it would work but I don't think these are DOT approved for the highway (blind oncoming traffic). I think these are for offroad use only. I put mine on my Chinese ATV to replace the dim one that came on it. Works great and really bright.

i put these on my 1990 jeep wrangler (i have both 30 degree and 60 degree ones) and the 30 degree ones look like brights driving down the road. you can but their throw distance is not that good unless your going offroading. so i would not suggest it because here in texas i have seen fellow jeep people get pulled over for driving with these on down the highway

They worked fine for me, use blue loctite, $1.49 for a small packet at Autozone. After 20-30 rounds it loosened. No problems since adding the loctite.

i bought the single contact Led which was intended for brake and turn signals, the single point is positive and is for older model vehicles. if you have a 2 bulb system then you'll need an amber Led as well. the single or double post must match your systems current bulb type. my use of these Led bulbs was not for a vehicle however.

These are marker lights, NOT turn signals. They are not DOT approved for turn signals, and not really bright enough to be turn signals. However, they do meet DOT requirements for marker lights. Thanks!

Hello no the front pieces are different for drivers and passengers sides but you might want to ask KIA directly because maybe they can go opposite, i don't know.

It all depends where you mount them. If they are on the bumper, they will be fine as long as they're angled properly. If they are mounted up by the windshield, they will blind oncoming traffic. I don't know about the states in your law, but in NY, any auxiliary lighting mounted above the headlights is for off road use only.

they are road legal so they will have some yellow to them. there are the osram hyper which are white but not road legal and also have less output. the whiter you go the less output you get

In colorado, no LEDs are approved. Buttttt if it's working, I don't think an officer would pull you over. I don't think any LEDs are dot approved. But what a GREAT brake light.

DOT requires extra bars, see: http://www.justritemfg.com/Products/Safety-Cans-and-Containers/

The seller does not indicate DOT approval. The LED cover is a flat glass plate and the optics involve no reflectors to control light paths, so I doubt that DOT approval would be likely. However, I have installed two as auxiliary driving lights, rigidly mounted on my heavy touring bike (97 Royal Star) and they work very well. I have carefully aimed them so that the central beam is fully to the left of the center line on the road and I aimed the left beam lower than the right to minimize glare for oncoming drivers. They have been very effective in lighting up the roadway and perimeter when I'm on unlighted secondary and tertiary roads out in the country. I've gotten no "high-beam flips" from anyone.
