So iv been thinking lately that the amber strip and bulb housing would look alot better black to match my truck and the headlight housing. Let me know what yall think and the best way to tint em with success. Thanks.

Talk to Jeremy, he could probably point you in the right direction. I'd venture to say that you wouldn't be able to tint the bulb housing. The strip, perhaps the night shade spray, or just a tint strip?

yeah, you'd have to take the lights apart and then I guess VHT would be ok? Light coats on the stuff - but it would be hard to say if the end result is what you are after.
