Buy a taurus.

I have no probs w/ mine. In my 90lx 5.0 it was a bitch with the smoke coverings, but fine when I took them off.

What year car do you have?

The 2001+ Mustangs have a black plastic inside the headlights that make it look like a headlight smoke, but at night, it makes a difference. I have a 99 GT but I have that plastic installed in my headlights, so they suck too. But not that bad. I've never heard of anybody doing this, but you could take the black plastic out, exposing the entire headlight's mirror-like finish.

Heres the difference:

Heres the Mustang headlight up to 2000:



And heres a headlight of a 2001+ Mustang.



See the black plastic inside I was talking about?
