Does anyone know where to get aftermarket blacked out headlight and tail light assemblies for an 85 k10
-
ebay, summit racing, jegs and part stores. cheapest would be ebay. but i have blacked out headlight in my truck (work 2400x0800) first time driving at night. pulled out of my driveway then reversed right back. i couldn't see anything even with headlight relays. took my other truck into work and removed the headlight next day. not to mention headlight will get you in trouble with the law faster than taillights (if they arnt to blacked out.

yeah most states, allow blacked-out taillights, but with headlights you have to remove them at dusk/dawn to be legal, so it is more of a PIA then it is worth.

I'm not looking for the light lens I'm looking for backing to be black and the lens clear the the projector lights they have.

koda thats what i had. the black didnt reflect the way or even close to the way stock does. i sometimes will drive on the back roads with no headlights on, only using the moon light. those headlights are worse than driving like that. you would be better with flashlights

if you are talking about a black back behind the bulb you won't be able to see..

not sure about headlights, but just gonna put my two cents in... on my 87 i just used plastidip on the stock taillights. color of the taillights matches perfect with the flat black. they look great at night also. never been pulled over cuz of em, and i also run open headers and 14" swampers that stick out further than the wheel wells a good amount and never been pulled over for any of that here in illinois. you should be fine with em tinted
