I am not sure. I think that you can have the headlights as long as they both work. I dont think there is a certain power output level that you would have to worry about. just like its not a law you have to have highbeam lights. as long as your normal headlights function its ok. If there is a law then you would have to contact the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. or the DOT for more info.

So that you get the correct answer because I could not find anything, it would be best just to call your local police department and ask them........
