Do you get ur stock smoked out or you bought the stock lights that come smoked like the ones from American muscle

why would you want to decrease your light output and vision? [Confused]

he doesnt want too, thats why hes asking if aftermarket smoked lights are as clear at night as stock ones are. lol

Your best bet is to just get the blk hosing headlamps and keep your high output visibility...smoking the lens or blacking them out almost all the time will decrease your vision...

also you can get a ticket for having modified lights or something other than oem.

just grab some head light covers for the day and then pop them off at night and then youll have your blackouts during the day and clear view at night
