    You can get it at any auto store or Amazon. Search: VHT Nite-shades

    Also if you have a compressor and spray gun, you can mix black and clear in around a 1:4 mix and spray as many coats as you want on. It's much more durable.

    I've had both, starting with VHT but it ends up having a weird tint to it after a while, almost maroon looking. So I sanded it off and mixed my own and they had that wet black look to them.

    I got my smoked akkons on Amazon a month ago. The smoked version is out of stock because when I click on it in my order history, it only brings up the red ones.

    I had the smoked spyders but didn’t like them personally. Not the look I wanted. Traded them for the clear spyders.

    I went with this same set. Placed LED bulbs and haven't had any issues. Even went through snovid 2021 and not one leak or issue.

    They can be a bit hard to find, but worth the penny.

    Do you happen to have any additional photos? I'm curious how dark these are in different lighting conditions.
