It certainly would make for an interesting legal argument as to what is
the exterior vs. interior of a motorcycle.

Blake,
You're right..
Here in PA,  flashing blue lights are reserved for volunteer Fire 
Fighters and the like,  but since these are not on top of my vehicle and 
are visible only to the rear, I'll take my chances.  These re not really 
the same shade of blue either, but I guess if the officer had a hard 
day, he could decide to hassle a poor innocent biker...  Then I could 
just tape over them until he goes away!!  
He would be better off enforcing the laws that prevent left turns 
directly in front of cyclists..
