Looking good!

Don't know about BC, but here in Ontario, I'm pretty sure its against the law to obstruct the headlights or DRL's in any way, good cause to get pulled over and ticketed. That little bit of trivia aside, they look good, but now the foglights look out of place, are you going to do them next?

I've always wondered about diminished light output from all these smoked head/tail lights.

Personally neither are my cup of tea.

I was at the local mechanic shop this afternoon to see about getting the beam aimed. The mechanic advised that the smoked headlights are illegal in British Columbia. Took the GT home, got in the other Stang and drove to the local R.C.M.P. Detachment and was told the same thing.

Contacted the seller and their customer service rep advises that the smoked headlights will not meet a "DOT" inspection and are for off road use only. Hmmm don't know of too many off road Mustang GTs. Read the seller's site front and back and there was no information on whether the smoked headlights were "DOT" approved or their off road crap line.

Note to self: No more parts through EBAY.


So now I have ordered a clear set from LateModelRestoration and should have them installed shortly after 16th October.

Anyone need a pair of "Off Road Mustang Euro Tint HeadLights??"

^^^ That sucks Ray.

Tons of cars/trucks out there with smoked headlights. I'm sure they're illegal everywhere.

New clear headlights from LateModelRestoraton installed yesterday, 20 October.

The seller of the smoked headlights has agreed to have them shipped back and give me a refund.

Stupid question, but did you pitch the takeoff's and have to buy the new clear headlights? Or are the new ones an upgrade?
