				I went through nats without anyone saying anything to me, but I was never officially impounded. I'm pretty sure the rule was written for the recessed headlights (i.e. Fox body and 3rd gens), but could be used against turn signals too, based on it's wording/definition of "recessed lights". Back on topic, I did bend the front tow hook when I ran over the tow strap being towed. It yanked the tow hook down about 3/4" before the strap broke. I just hammered it back up when I had the nose off. No biggie for me. |

The bolded item was added specifically because of flush covered turn signal holes, and headlight covers, about 7-8yrs ago after an incident at Ca Speedway. |
