- Ooh, it's Amazon.
Ooh, these are illegal.
These are illegal.
We bought a bunch of car accessories off the internet
that might be extremely illegal.
So we're gonna put on our $500 Jetta.
Then we're gonna call a legal expert
and see just how illegal they are.
He's Jeremiah. I'm James.
And this is- - [Announcer] The D-List.

And now back, to the show.
(calm piano melody)
So all this stuff is perfectly legal to buy online.
I mean, it showed up. I'm still here.
But if you Google the most illegal car accessories,
this stuff is what you're gonna find.
Well, Jeremiah, if I have to go down with anybody,
I'm glad it's you.
Let's look at our first piece of evidence.
Car 360 GPS camera laser police safe
radar detector voice alert, $49.
- It's an actual car? (both laughing)
- It looks like a Lamborghini.
You can tell this thing definitely works.
Undetectable by currently available
radar detector detectors. (Jeremiah laughing)
So unless they invent a new kind of stronger radar detector
- [Both] detector, = we're money, baby!
Car speed testing system.`
I think that's Russian. (Jeremiah laughing)
Ah. it's not a Lamborghini machine.
- [Jeremiah] Aw.
- Do not stare at the screen of the product for a long time.
What? (ominous music)
(laughing) - Now that's scary.
- Do not place the product on the dashboard for a long time?
Do not take the product apart.
What is in this product? (Jeremiah laughing)
- [Jeremiah] But it can't sit on the dash too.
- [James] Not too long.
(banging on dashboard)
That's a pretty good lay down.
(radar playing melody)
- [Radar] Please fasten your safety belt. Highway mode.
- Hell yeah.
(dramatic music)
(radar speaking instructions)
- [Jeremiah] It's detecting it.
(laughing)
- Yeah. You just gotta be right there.
- Well, hold on. All right. So now we know.
So let me get... (laughing)
(radar voice speaking instructions)
Heck yeah.
- So yeah, dude.
That thing, I mean, theoretically worked,
- I detected a radar signal, which is what it said it did.
- Let's see just how illegal they are.
- Hey, it's Joe, the legal beagle here.
Woof woof! (laughing)
I'm gonna be honest with you.
I'm not a real lawyer,
but we talked with a real lawyer
and this is what they said
about the car accessories in this video, okay?
This is not advice by the way. Not at all!
in California, owning and using a radar detector
is not illegal,
but mounting the device on a windshield is illegal
and could result in a fine upwards of 500 bucks.
But in some states like Virginia or DC,
radar detectors are illegal and penalties
could be even worse than that.
So this is potentially pretty illegal,
but now it's super duper illegal.
Back to you, James.
- So this next one apparently is a three parter.
Ooh, it's Amazon.
(dramatic music) Ooh, these are illegal.
These are illegal.
Xprite 16 LED red blue windshield dash
emergency strobe lights with suction cups
for police law enforcement, POV vehicles.
(laughing) - Ooh.
- Trucks, rear deck hazard, warning flashing traffic light,
other colors available.
- Yeah but these are the red and blues.
- These are the illegal ones.
Second product.
Oh, he got us like an impersonating a police officer kit.
Seven siren sounds car siren speaker
can make seven alarm loud and clear sounds.
You got a PA system, car siren speaker,
our built in public address system.
You can talk to other people with this mic in your car.
Nice. - I guess.
- You can also have a joke with your friends
and they will not know who's talking.
(Jeremiah laughing)
- Is that for real what is says?
- Yeah, man.
- Okay, well, we're gonna have to recreate that.
- And then we have one more in our
- [Both] kit of three
- very illegal things to have.
I can't imagine this stuff getting more illegal than this,
(dramatic music) (Jeremiah laughing)
An NYP police department officially licensed sticker decals.
- I mean, come on, man. - Come on, Max.
(both laughing)
- [Jeremiah] Mm, that's a good box.
It is. I don't want to rip it.
(both laughing)
Nice cord. Yeah.
Good thing we have that splitter.
I don't think this is fooling anybody.
Especially since for some reason we got New York.
It turned on.
- Hello.
- Whoa, it is loud.
You could have a joke with your friend!
At any distance!
- Knock knock. (both laughing)
Do you know who it is?
- Okay, so I got to find a spot,
because I already got lights up here.
- Oh, heck yeah dude. Good pull.
Oh, nice. - Thank you.
Is there any volume adjustment?
- I don't think so. I think it's all or nothing.
(megaphone screeching and beeping)
Can I ask you how fast I was going back there?
Oh my God.
- That's illegal, dude. - That's illegal.
- That is illegal. (siren wailing)
(both laughing)
(siren wailing)
(siren changing tones rapidly)
- Okay. I have a feeling that was probably enough
for the neighbors. (Jeremiah laughing)
And so to make it the piece de resistance,
the thing that's really gonna set it over the edge.
Here you go.
This car super illegal dude.
- [Jeremiah] I mean, I'm not gonna lie.
I really like that.
Like the little kid in me wants to
put that in my Lexus right now.
- Again, we're doing this in a parking lot.
If you do that on the street,
like there's something wrong with you.
(Jeremiah laughing) You're a weirdo.
- They're the most illegal thing on here.
It does say move over. (both laughing)
- Berp berp. Move over.
- For the flashing lights,
it's okay to have these on a car on private property,
but running these on public roads could result
in several citations, including impersonating
an authorized emergency vehicle.
Penalties include fines of upwards of 500 bucks
as well as misdemeanor or even felony charges
if it's proven that you had intent
to impersonate a police officer.
That loud speaker? That's definitely illegal.
It includes a minimum fine of 650 bucks.
The NYPD sticker is more of a gray zone.
You could get in a ton of trouble
if it's displayed in a way to induce the belief
that you are a cop.
Back to you, James.
- Hell yeah, dude. This is more Batman stuff.
Show remote control retractable
hide hidden flip car license plate flipper, go in.
So this is like a license plate that you put on
and you can flip and change your license plate.
- Yeah. Yeah.
Really sweet.
- This paired with the cop lights,
paired with the intercom, it's like,
why are you pretending to be this person?
And why do you want to change your license plate?
You'll get in serious trouble for this.
- Yeah.
= I've been arrested for defrauding the DMV before.
- So. Listen to us,
people who've gotten in trouble by doing dumb things.
Don't, don't do this.
- All right. Let's throw this bad boy on.
Okay, so this is nice.
This already got a license plate mounted up
from Max's personal collection.
Thank you, max. This one's from Utah.
- Thanks Max.
- You wanna do back or front?
- Front.
- [James] Let's do front,
so all the illegal stuff's on the front.
Yeah.
- [Jeremiah] I mean it's nice.
Yeah, it's nice. Pretty nice piece.
He was just like, "Yeah, yeah, looks nice."
(both laughing)
I've seen a lot of those and that's a nice one.
Oh, we didn't plug it in. (laughing)
Find the wire.
This is kind of a rat's nest.
Oh, we could use some TikTok hacks.
Clean up this wiring.
- Okay. So this is the fob.
Okay. (fob beeping)
(dramatic music)
Sounds like it's working. What is this beep?
Is that this?
It certainly does beep more than I think it should.
- [Jeremiah] Oh, you're from Cali?
Oh, I don't like Cali people.
- Oh, that's cool man.
Cause I just so happen to be from...
Utah. - [Jeremiah] Oh, okay Utah.
I lied. I like Cali people more.
- [James] What do you mean? I am from Cali dude.
- All right, I kinda like this guy.
- So I don't necessarily think that this device is illegal.
I think what it facilitates is illegal.
So if you're at a car show and you have some like
fake vanity plate and you flip it, like, cool.
That makes it easy. Now it says like, "Spider Man"
or something, you know? (Jeremiah laughing)
That's like fine.
I don't think the actual device is illegal.
But if you are running a plate
that is not the one that the DMV gave you,
then that is very illegal.
It's called defrauding the DMV.
And it's a class A felony.
I know that for a fact.
- Don't ask him how. - Don't ask me how.
- This might be the most illegal thing on the list so far.
You could face felony fraud charges,
including $10,000 in fines
and three years in jail or prison.
You pick. They let you pick.
Again, not legal advice at all, okay?
I just think you should know this kind of stuff.
- Okay, what do we got? Oh, Amazon.
- So this is the PQI exhaust flame thrower,
exhaust flame kit, car ignition rev limiter
and launch control fire control chip drift
fire shooting exhaust.
Any four cylinder, six cylinder and rotary motor engine.
Sounds like if you've got a V8, you're screwed.
You have multiple flame options, including stroke flame,
connects to e-brake for immediate response.
So I honestly could see this working.
Okay, so this guy, five stars.
Mint.
This thing works like I have a 2000 Mustang
hooked it up and it spits nasty three foot flames,
but you have to wire it right
and the instructions are pretty vague,
but it absolutely work.
Also, this doesn't work in first gear.
I will update you guys with a video soon.
I'll send the link here in a couple.
- That's March 10th, 2020.
- We're still waiting.
- Michael Vasos. Junk.
- [Both] Total piece of junk.
- Wired it a hundred percent correctly.
We don't know that.
- And it caused your car to randomly stall?
Doesn't sound like you did it correctly.
Power builder PQI.
- [Jeremiah] Rev one, rev two.
- [James] Gain. - [Jeremiah] Ooh.
- You wire this into your ECU,
and it messes with your ignition timing,
which is not a thing I want to do.
- No.
- So we're gonna have our shop manager, Adam,
install it and see how much it doesn't work.
- Back in the day. BR used to sell these.
I still think they do for like three, four, 500 bucks.
And I went online trying to see how to install this guy.
I've never seen anybody good on this BMW.
So we've got a very, very poor Googled schematic.
So we're about to find out...
(ominous music) if this works or not.
(car engine revvig)
It started. - [James] That's a good sign.
- It'll cause your car to randomly stall.
- If its, uh, gonna blow.
- Spits nasty thee foot flames.
(ominous music)
- [Announcer] Three, two, one.
(car engine revving)
- Nope. - [Jeremiah] It shot juice.
- How illegal do you think spitting flames
out of your exhaust is, scale of one to ten?
- Well, if you have to cut the cat,
that's illegal.
- 100. In California it's illegal.
Pretty illegal.
Let's see what our expert has to say.
- All right, I'm gonna level with you, all right?
California is a bit more strict than other states
when it comes to exhaust related modifications.
And shooting flames out of your car is a pretty good way
to break a few laws if you ask me.
Don't ask me, cause I legally cannot give advice.
You could face up to $500 in fines
and potentially get your car impounded.
You don't want that! No one wants that!
Back to you, James and Jeremiah.
- Our last product isn't technically illegal,
but I do want to use our platform
to try and convince everyone that it should be.
Of course, I'm talking about
truck nuts eight inch tall plastic colors truck nuts.
Choose your color. We went with flesh.
(Jeremiah laughing)
How in the world is this allowed?
Think about the children.
This isn't like a caricature of testicles.
This is an anatomically correct,
oversized,
veiny,
flesh colored,
giant (bleeping)
that you hang off the back of your car.
And I would like to get these outlawed
in every single state.
- Call your representatives. Let them know.
- For the children.
- Should we go ahead and pop these bad boys on?
- Not even as a joke. (Jeremiah laughing)
- You're not down to do it huh?
- No.
- You may be surprised to find out
that truck nuts are not illegal.
Except in Florida.
I feel like I would see the most truck nuts in Florida.
Truck nuts have started endless debates
over freedom of speech and are easily
the most controversial item on this list.
Look, I'm not a lawyer.
Not at all! Not at all!
This has been me, Joe, the legal beagle.
Until next time, woof woof.
