No it's not. It is a light device, added to the vehicle that has never been available that way from the manufacturer. If you add lights to your vehicle in Germany, they have to fullfill some criteria.
1. It has to match the general law about motorvehicles in public traffic, called StVZO (Strassenverkehrszulassungsordnung)...nice word, ain't it? :laugh:
This would be the case, because turn signals are allowed to be on each corner of the vehicle (iirc up to 3 on each corner), on each fender and on each sidemirror. They also have to match a certain hight, i think...not too low, not too high.
BUT in addition to that:
2. EVERY light device, that's added to the vehicle and was not that way stock, has to be authorized by the federal or the european office for motor traffic (called Kraftfahrtbundesamt). So the cover and glass of every light device in europe and germany has a small E in a circle and a Number next to it stamped on or...dont know how its called..."casted in".
That is called "E-Prüfzeichen" (E-approval-mark). Even the lights on factory stock vehicles have to have them!
If there is no "E-Prüfzeichen" on a light device (additional high beams, fog lights, backup lights,
addtional turn signals) it is not allowed to have it installed on your vehicle.
So to have the setup you have shown above legal, every single LED would have to be equipped with that E-approval-mark.
Of course the police doesn't look at every lamp and housing at cars all the time, but your idea is very uncommon and likely to draw a lot of attention to it. So the Polizei will notice it and, jeeperjohn is absolutely right, they may not like it. Mainly because it might be confusing for others and not be clearly realized as a turn signal at all.
So why is it all so complicated? Well...like in every other country in the world, there is a certain ammount of retarded idiots running around, refusing to use there brains in any way. Now imagine one of those would be allowed to add whatever lights he would like to his car. The opposing traffic would love that.
And because the amount of retarded idiots around here is not that small, the rules for vehicles and traffic sadly have to be very strict.
But still much is possible...my XJ is modded quiet a bit (as to see in the international chapter) and still everything is legal...
Ok that was a lot of text and a lot of information about german traffic law, that won't be of any use for most of you. But before Djmack puts a huge amount of work in something, that just will get him pulled out by the police and maybe pay a few hundred euros of fine, it might be better he knows that it won't be legal in public traffic.
Best regards from Bavaria!
