Default headlight tint?

I know a few people out there have done it, how much does it effect your visibility? I did my tail lights and now I'm thinking of doing my headlights and daytime running lights. Anyone?

Where do you live? Cause here in California I am almost certain you would be pulled over all the time for tinting your headlights.....

I've only been in 1 vehicle with tinted lights. They still had standard halogens, but it was like driving with 2 flashlights taped to the hood.

I would leave them alone personally, but if you do it use the film so it can be taken off easy if you don't like it
