I figured I'd just use the blue lenses that came with my shooting glasses.

Lab where are ya getting the gel film. Does it stick like tint?

For these lights I used actual tint film. It does stick and it will stay in place even if it didn't stick. I put it on the back side of the removable lenses on my lights. There is a fairly wide seal around the lense that will be compressed when you reassemble the light. That will hold the gels or tint films in place. Not sure it will show up but I will take a picture and attach it here.

The gel films and tint I had to order from Amazon. None of my local resources had or were willing to get any.

...and if it does stick like film, will it stick in the sub zero temps once the glass on the lenses freeze over...

Gel films are from a company by the name of Rosco. Tint from Rvinyl performance products.

We are finally getting some snow here and decided to go out and try my VisionX lights . These things are terrible in the snow.


How are your lights working with the different tint Labraptor ?

Rear Amber Lights

By now everyone that is planning on having rear facing amber lights has probably already put them on, any way here are a couple of photos of how mine were installed and what they look like one. They have 21 different patterns including ON. The two issues I have was when I first made the bracket I had the light to close to the rear window and the slider hit and would only open half way. The other issue is that my pattern select button in currently in the glove box, it’s hidden but a pain to see what pattern they are on.

Tint worked great when I tried it out tonight. Tires handled deep snow easily too. Found some huge drifts and long stretches of snow several feet deep. Road commissioner apparently really meant it when he said stay home lol.
