New Lights and tint (3%)

I just got my Camry re tinted today. First I had an ungly silver into black tint that came with the car. I went with the 3% tint all around. On the windsheild I put a strip of the same 3% on the top and on the bottom (legal in Belize). I also installed some new driving lights that also has park light built in. I changed the stock bulb to some H3 Xtreme White bulbs and changed the park lights to blue ones to match my neon and corners. In the picture the lights don't look white but rather more yellow, but I guess it's the camera. I'll take more pics tomorrow. Also in the pics you can see my custom plates w/ the toyota logos.

Looks pretty good! I like the way the blue lights match. But damn, 3%? I've had probems seeing with 20%! I've got 35% on my Camry now and wish I had 20%.

City lights are a european safty feature, some cars here have them but they just incorperate the headlights, so your headlights come on with the ignition. Driving lights are white (generally) fog lights used to aid in road vision, mounted like fog lights. Fog lights are actually Yellow to cut the fog, because white is reflected by fog.

now my brain hurts, thanks for making me think


and oh yeah they look really sweet too

I just came home from taking my cousin home and those things are hella dark, but I'm used to them because my Trooper has 5% and my bro's Sonoma has 3% so I have no real problems. Only thing is when backing up I gotta open up my door to see and make sure nothing is behind me. I like how the windsheild looks witht he two strips of tint. I gotta post pics tomorrow. When I get my clear bumper signals I'm gonna wire the park lights in the driving lights to blink with the bumper signals. Should look nice since I have my corners wired up to blink also.

Oh yeah thanks for all the comments.

Cool

Must be awsome living somewhere without tint, or lighting laws.

What I love is how the tint really is around 3%. Jesus the flash bearly penitrates it, and the camera is in a slow exposure LoL!

Yup I love living in Belize. You basically can do whatever you want to your car and it doesn't matter. As long as you have all your basic stuff that should be working, then your fine. I'll take some more pics first thing in the morning before I go to church at 7.
