    Cool!! I want some of those! Better yet, lets black them out completely and install infrared headlights so we can drive with night vision goggles. I'll definitely have to get my PV2 muffler replaced though...

    Lets hope I never seek that type of "blackouts" used for cover in battle situations. Looks like someone is a realy History Channel buff. I will take it from the lack of response that the very dark covers no longer exist....Thanks

    VXNIT,
    You can buy some lense 'tinting' spray and DIY if you really want them dark (sounds like a good way to get rear-ended though).

    kpaske,
    I have a set of IR lights that I 'liberated' from an M551 Sheridan @ 12 years ago. They are 24V, but I've been dying to hook them up to something.

    Well Moncha's 'blacked out' brake lights on the trail nearly cause several rear enders even though the center brake light was working with my flasher. I can't imagine wanting to make my vehicle's rear end invisible and illegal. Rear end collisions do a LOT of damage to the VX and the driver. Maybe just drive with your lights off - same effect and cheaper.

    GTS makes slotted ones which I had on before I actually got my tail-lights smoke tinted from the inside. The GTS slotted covers are pretty nice and easy to install. Can't recall offhand where I picked them up, but it was online somewhere. If they make slotted ones, I am sure they make the solid kind too. The solid's are illegal in some states so I would check up on that before purchasing.
