The tint film does not cover the whole light housing. When you are 15-20 feet away from the car you can't tell, but any closer and you can see the grey perimeter of the light housing all around the edges of the tint. But I have seen other pre-cut tint that appears to fit better. My stuff was just the cheap $30 crap off of Ebay. I had my speed shop install the tint, and I believe they contracted the job out to their local pro tint guy. I honestly don't know how hard it would be to install yourself, but I could see it being very hard to get it perfect because of the shape of the headlight. Actually my driver side is already peeling and I am going to use some clear gel glue to fix it up...we'll see how that turns out...

As for light output, as I stated before, it seems to cut down on the light by about 25%, so it is fairly significant, but not detrimentally so. I would say that if you do a lot of night driving, then this probably isn't something you should do. But, if you mostly drive during the day with only the occasional night drive out of town, then it would be OK.
