I say "Don't get them". I like to see and be seen at night. Anything that cuts down on either is DUMB!

Yeah, I'm not going to tint the front until I get fog lights installed. I've had the fronts tinted before on another car, with no fog lights, and it was hard to see at night. If I do get the front tinted, I'll post some pictures

You can still see the brake lights fine.

There is also a 3rd brake light that you don't need to cover.

That's really a non issue.

btw.. if you look at this video.. about halfway through.. I put on my brakes. Notice that the large brake lights are the same brightness as the third light.. which is not covered.

Didnt even notice you were so close.
If you are ever going to be in town, PM
me beforehand and maybe we can admire
each othersStang in person.
Trade mod stories and such.
Maybe help you wire in those new fogs
if you get a new grill with them.
Here is a site that shows proper placement of the emblems.
