Great unless you plan on driving at night or in the rain,

Are those even still made?

They were huge in the late 90's, but now seem dated and silly imho

I picked up a set like 4 years ago. Not cool anymore. Lmr sells ultra clear smoked headlights. Much better.

The clear gts covers can help preserve headlights from UV destruction.

My car sits outside and I've been thinking about buying a set so I don't have to replace headlight sets every two years.

Could you wet sand and clear coat them

If the cracks don't get too deep you can wet sand them. Usually, my headlights have those fine cracks after a couple summers.
