I have no idea.. I haven't driven it at night and won't until summer..I don't think the smoke will really make much of a difference.. I run much brighter bulbs than stock anyway, BUT, the tinted windshield really cuts down on my night vision..
I will be upgrading to H.I.D's at some point to get back to normal..

Where do you work? Do you work for yourself?

On SVTP you said something about customers cars taken up too much time!

Well, I'm a pretty busy guy... Part of the year I travel around the country welding at Coal Fired Powerplants mainly.. I am also part owner of an accessory shop And I am a full time Mechanical Engineering student 1 semester per year..

The Boilermaking thing is the reason I won't be seeing my car for awhile..but the Money is DEFINATELY worth traveling for..The accessory shop is a means for me to basically practice on customer cars before I work on my own.. Electronics are my main specialty, especially alarms and remote starts..I became part owner of the shop because I had worked there for about a year and a half and the owner liked me so much he wanted me to buy the whole shop..I really wasn't interested in solely owning it, but it's 49/51 right now. Mainly, I just like getting stuff at cost, plus I have unlimited use of the shop at any time..

They definitely aren't as bright as clear ones. I had to angle mine up a bit, but I have stock bulbs. Still better than my yellow ones.

Car looks good. Kinda surprised to see it out in the snow actually.

Car looks great! Only thing I'd get rid of are the liscence plate screw holes in the front bumper. The rear tint is nice and subtle too
