if you really want to get out and take these on and off every time u do night driving these are for you. i had them on a car way WAY back before they offered black housing headlights, biggest pain in the ass ever.

uh oh AAS, i hear nothing but negitive feedback about them. Be careful with what you do with them i hear they suck at getting orders out and off the shelf and if you cancel they make you pay a restocking fee when they didnt even take it off they shelf. Be WARNED.

Eclipse tuners are performance-obsessed sleeper fanatics who dream only about downpipes, exhuast gases, and wastegates. Their cars aren't pretty, but have the ability to spank you silly on the highway. In other words, Eclipse tuners write checks their cars can cash.

You may have better luck finding them if you have the correct product name GTS

if you look at the pic youll notice the dark circles. they are velcro adhesive pads and thats how they are held on. at nightwhen the lights are on it looks real tacky, that why i wouldnt recommend it. if your goin for that look, you could always spray it with a transparent black paint/ i forget what it is called but yea it looks the same

You can also typically find it on eBay, but be careful and make sure it is actually nightshades, and not the testors model tint some people try to sell.

Just be sure to put the coats on light and smooth, it is easy to go too dark. I recently took mine off because they were too dark and will be doing them soon again.

The other option is a tinting film (similar to the 3M headlight protectant films) avaialble here:

I sold a pair of those Pro-beam covers to someone on the board. They look okay, but I recommend just getting new headlights.
