It is my understanding that they are not illegal, at least in
California, for off-road use.  If you keep them covered on vehicle code
enforced roads there shouldn't be a problem.

for aux. lighting.

HA back.  You guys are behind the times.  Several lives ago when I was
going
to college for the first time in the UP of Michigan in the late sixties,
I
had a friend who worked one summer at the Air Force Base in Marquette.
By
some chance, a pair of landing lights fell off a plane and landed right
on
the front bumper of his souped up Corvair.  He spent the next 10 months
careening around the UP, frying eyeballs, scaring deer, and setting a
few
roadside bushes on fire before planting the Corvair squarely in a swamp
-
the result of an acceleration and geometry problem gone awry.  Alas, the
landing lights did not survive the experiment, but the car lived on for
several more years.  It smelled so bad that he couldn't get anyone to
ride
in it unless they were seriously impaired.  Olfactoraly, of course.
