    I believe they actually work better in fog and rain? Yellow shoots farther? Could be mistaken though.

    Yes the wave length of the color yellow cuts through the fog better

    No why would there be cutting? What is there to even cut?

    A paint used to "stain" glass with; bought it at Michaels.

    Cuts through fog better than the white. The white reflects off it reducing its effectiveness.

    yup.

    yup.

    I used lamin-x covers, and they look great. It just takes some time. I spent about 30 minutes on mine.

    Bonus news is that I'm up grading to hids next month. I'm just worried about the lamin-x covers melting. Any one have any thoughts on this?
