Why would you do that? Don't like to see when it's night out?

Dude, it sucks that the plastic lens of your headlights melted but don't make the problem worse by getting this film!

Your best option is to get the Litronics Retrofit Kit for 99-01 cars. A second option would be to get newer headlights with clear turn signals -- you can find these on eBay since a lot of people upgrade to Litronics and sell their old halogen headlights.

Well the plastic melted true, not too bad though. I just thought it would look cool. It allows 83% of the light through. I am trying not to spend 1500 on some new headlights (although very sick).

Tinted headlights look "rice"!

Before I get flamed, the blue ones you see in my avatar are only fitted while driving on track and is purely for protection.

I never thought a mod to MY car would get everyone so agitated. Before you get "flamed" I simply asked if they were street legal or not.

Thanks

We are hard but honest over here on Rennlist, you just wait for LVDell to have a go at you! At the same time we are also a good community that normally get along so relax and don't take it too serious.

Ciao,
