Are LED tire caps illegal in Tennessee?
Don't know if they are legal or not, but I do know that they will cause your valve stems to leak. The extra weight of the cap will cause the valve stem to be pushed to one side when the tire rotates at highway speeds. This will put undue stress on the valve stem and eventually cause it to start leaking. Plus, someone will probably steal them anyway. Been there and done that myself. Don't install them.

Where is the PCV valve on a 1997 dodge neon?
Follow the black hose from the top of the valve cover, over the top of the engine, then towards the drivers side to the front of the engine. Is is inline with the hose. Pretty easy as far as PCV valves go. See question about losing oil at highway speeds.
