Tacoma 2016 smoked light covers

educate me please, I'm. Looking to install smoked light covers on my Taco 16 , any suggestions ! Thanks

 

Only ones I see in my data base is auto ventshade having a kit.

 

got it thanks.

 

Or get them tinted at a local tint shop

 

I think that's the best option ......

 

You can also have them sprayed with blacken clear coat. Professionally it looks better than any cover or tint. However if you got a ticket it's not removable. You'd have to replace the lights. However you can mix the clear as light or dark as you want

 

why would you smoke them when people are reporting they suck and don't give enough light? lol
oh well just get some of this

check into your laws though before you do it. might only be able to do a minor smoke.

 

Why in the F would anyone do this... "so I look cool"..? Wrapped around a moose don't make you "look cool"..!!

Sorry... just do not understand this concept..!!

 

No mooses(?) In florida.

 

I knew there was a good answer to my question...!! Thank you..!
You guys want some moose (meese pl) sent down there..? Good eatin'

 

Never understood smoked headlights/taillights. Just makes you harder to see.

 

here I've heard people being rear ended and being ruled at fault because of their smoked tails.

 

Aren't the TRD Pro lights darker??? Just buy new Pro lights and swap??

 

Smoked headlight lenses is a darwinistic idea. You are drastically cutting your light output and visibility, which is the sole purpose of the headlight.

Edit: Read last comment and thought it was headlight covers, but seems possibly more general? Taillights? Either way not a good practice IMO.

Yes. The TRD Pro is similar to the Black HeadLight Mod (BHLM), except in more of a smoked color. BHLM: Paint the interior (non-reflective surfaces) black, leave the lens clear. Looks darker and has zero impact on light output and safe operation. With a 3rd gen projector you could paint a large area black without affecting light output. Meaning much safer.

 

i was told by 2 tint shops nobody will/can tint them. excuse of the fins that stick out at such sharp angles.
they said it's gotta be painted.

also like stated above i'd rather have the paint on the inside not the outside

 

I purchased headlight/ tail light from AVS, just because i want to make everything blacked out. I will have bumper288W and roof400W LED plus tailgate LED strip for turn/running/brake. Will post once everything is in place.(Prolly in December.lmao)

 

are avs those the snap on covers?

 

I believe so. I havent gotten it in my hand so dont really know to be honest.
Im a bit concerned about heat though. I hear that many films would melt or deform reflectors inside

 

if u still have warranty and that happens just put it back to stock an say u left ur truck out in the sun on a hot day lol

 

Haha well, mine will be in Japan which voids any warranty. Id have to ship it back to the states.
