  • headlight/taillight blackouts

    Been thinking about doing this for a long time and now I finally have the money. But I have a couple questions first.

    1) Is it illegal to have them on during the day and night?

    2) Are there any special types made where the cover is still semi-clear where the light comes out but the rest where the light doesnt come out is dark?

    3) What would be the best place to buy them(ebay, RKsport) and how much would I be expecting to pay?

    4) How do I attach them and I read that you can bolt them on so they wont fall off. Is this true?

    i have a set of AVS taillight covers that work great. they are like GTS ones too. they have two velcro like strips that go on the bottom of the taillight then you slip it on top of the taillight where it kinda hangs on there by a piece then sticks on. then the head light covers i have art GTS and they work well but if you want to make sure the brackets don't come off then you can screw them in...otherwise they have double-sided adhesive strips that work ok. then the covers just clip onto them and a bracket slips under another one. i obviously can't explain this too well...i'll take pics of mine to show you if you want. they are illegal almost everywhere but most cops don't really mind during the day. during the night the headlight covers i have have to come off but i leave the taillight covers on all the time. only been pulled over once and tha twas at 12 in the morning because the cop didn't have anything better to do (and that is the truth). just depends where you live. i would get GTS head- and taillight covers if i were you becasue they work well on our model camaro. i got mine from the chevy dealership's accessories department here but you can get them on rksport.com or on ebay just as well.

        both headlight and taillight covers brand new usually cost about $100 (pair for headlights and a pair for taillights). i'd check out rksport...i think they sell GTS covers.
