Mt. Vernon, WASH. | Check with the local State Patrol Office in your state first. I don't know about other states, but those sorts of covers or lenses will get you a big ticket in Washington whether you are a resident or just passin' through', lots of jacked up pickup drivers have had to remove them on the shoulder of the road while the Trooper finishes the 'defective equipment' greenie for your collection.

Jasper, MO | Just an observation. I'll be the first to admit that the smoked/blacked out lenses look great on vehicles, styling wise.
I was a trucker for many years. Those darkened out lenses make the lights damn near invisible when viewed from the seat of a big rig. I don't know if it's the viewing angle combined with the lower light output, or what, but the driver of the big rig near you may not see your brake or turn lights if you have them darkened. I've noticed this effect on everything from cars to pickup trucks to bikes that have darkened their lenses.
Those custom darkened lights are cool, but be advised that you are making yourself much less visible, especially to the big rigs..............
