Default headlight covers

on the 93-97 how well can you see out of the headlight covers? Do you guys take them off at night? Love the way they look but don't want a ticket, thanks.

They definately get a lot darker at night. but i've gotten used to it. i've always liked the look of blackouts and sacrificed my vision at night. yea, i'm too lazy to take them off but i've had no problems so far.
