Smoke Tinted Headlights
Hi guys, I just want some input. I am wanting to buy some new headlights and since I have a black truck I have been looking at some smoked headlights. Does anyone have them/ had them? Are they really dim at night?
This is the link that I have been looking at : http://www.ebay.ca/itm/FREE-SHIP-200...dadd16&vxp=mtr
They look nice but if you cant see anything at night what's the point.
Thanks

Hi.
Shipping is almost as much as the dang lights, lol! ( Confusing, that - says "free ship" but then states $60 shipping to Canuckistan....eh? )
Yep they will be dim(mer) - and the stock halogens need all the help they can get. Plus - these are cheap chinglish knockoffs - as such they are prone to leak, fog up and fit poorly. Shoot - check yer local laws - they may even be illegal.
Consider doing this instead: https://www.f150forum.com/f61/fs-200...id-kit-251322/
good luck

I bought tinted taillights for my sons 96 Ranger from this same seller. Lights were very nice, and I am very hard to please. I did apply silicone to any seam, gap, seal all over the backside as I am aware that 99.99% of all aftermarket lights are prone to leakage. 4 months later, not a single issue. I am watching a set of the black housing headlights from this same seller in my ebay now. My factory ones are scratched and even though I polished them, I am not happy with them.

Looking for opinions...
I'm in NYS and want to install a smoked film over my headlights and taillights. I've researched by have not found any laws or guidelines that state whether this is legal or not. Tinted windows are clearly defined but not headlights. If anyone has any experience with tinted headlights please pass it along. I'm trying to decide if I pull the trigger on tinting the fronts & back on my black FX4. Thanks!

Thanks for the input guys. I went with a projector, halo, LED headlights that are smoked. They are DOT approved but I don't think the cops will care regardless since its illegal here in Canada. Looks better now I have to spray the front and back chrome bumper black.... to much chrome on it for me.
