What is DOT seals?

Thanks.

The US's Department of Tranportation seals or stamps that every headlight and tail light must have. These blacklines don't have them, that is why BMW NA does not sell them in the US. They are technicaly illegal for sale or use in the states.

IF you open your trunk and look at the black area on the tail lights(the part that sits near the trunk rubber gasket)... you will see the DOT (and EU)stampings.
