Smoked Headlight Covers

I want to get black headlight covers for my Tacoma, but I have two concerns. 1)Are they legal (I live in AZ)? 2) If you have used these before, how much do these covers reduce visibility at night? Thanks for the advice

 

ya, I thought about doing the black headlight mod, but I really like the look thAt the covers have. And yes, I'm at DM.

 

Ya, I might still try them. And I thinks it's great out here, except the sun is no bueno for clear coat . . .

 

I doubt they're legal in any state. I would think that every state would have laws against covering headlights in any way. I won't compare it to the Peoples Republic of New Jersey but I know for a fact it's illegal there.

IMO, the main issue at hand in regard to headlight covers is that it isn't 1987

 

I used to rock these style of covers back in the day on my 5.0, and i could not see anything at night. They looked real good, back then anyway, and they were illegal in Cali. But the way they mounted, i couldn't see anyway of them being used on a Taco.

 

AZ law requires the lights to be illuminate objects 500 feet away (quick google taught me that)...so I'd assume you won't meet that requirement.
