Not sure I've ever seen them. Easy on the tail lamp tint. So many replace them because of too much tint.

You may want to check with your local law enforcement regarding the legality of having those headlights installed. I've heard of a few states, for example Maryland, that prohibits these kind of headlights.

What about just headlight covers, essentially the same thing but removable?

Where can I find those at? That way I could remove them at night and wouldn't have any trouble with the law.
