do these lights have a smoked lens? or is it clear?

Clear. Smoked lenses are illegal in most states. I have these on my truck and they look great!

Around the lights is flat. Of course where the filter is, is not a place to wipe clean. The one thing I don't like is most of the smoke gets sucked up around the lights and not up thru the filter. They should have sealed the lights.

Not sure why yours is any different than mine. Mine are just fine. Unless you got shipped the wrong light. The only part that will show is the light itself with the lip on the outside. The rest is irrelevent. If it's not what you want or dont like the look, send them back!

According to the item name and model number they are the full gray (smoke gray) lenses. I ordered mine a few months ago and I got the full gray lenes. I think they are using the wrong image.

The T at the end of the model references the Tech line which all come with smoked lens.Thanks

The set I got came with clear, smoked/dark, and amber lenses. Though some of the earlier reviewers mentioned not having these included with their purchase.

the lens looks smoked in the picture, but when I got mine they were not smoked they were clear. I still put them on my 2003 Pontiac and they look great, better than the lights that came on the car which were fogging up and were getting water in them and every other Pontiac I would see had the same problem with the back lights...three years after I bought my car new, the back lights were fogging up and one of my front lights...the lights that came on the car were poorly made, and Im not going to pay the dealer 200.00+ each to replace lights that leak and fog up....the spyders look great and I have not had any fogging up or water leaks and they were worth the money. the lens looks smoked in the picture, but when I got mine they were not smoked they were clear.

The ones I received were not smoked. The photo shows a tinted (smoked) exterior lens and the interior trim as matte black. The photo is incorrect. The exterior trim is black but, the interior (inside the lens) is chrome and the lens is clear. I installed these on a 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix and regardless, they look great. The LED lights are very bright and work great. Hole alignment was a minor problem in that I had to widen some of the hole slots on my car. Even with these issues, I still recommend them.

These are bright white. They do not have lenses so you get the raw light of the LED.

No most lenses don't unless you get custom "Transition" brand. The one I ordered was a smoke gray throughout. Not the two shades as shown in picture

Yeah I have smoked tail lights and you can see them better than a standard bulb.

It's smoked. I don't currently have that light because it didn't fit my 2000 chevy. It's way too long. Had to return it and bought the spyder brand.

Sorry for taking so long to respond. They are a bright white with a slight tint of purple to simulate HIDs. If I were you, I wouldn't waste the money as they didn't last long at all. Check out the Philips brand of lighting. I won't purchase PIAAs again. Hope that helps.

The picture of the headlight is very accurate.. the portion around the inside of the headlights is black... it's not possible to have the whole inside of the headlight black because the light needs to reflect off of the inside portion in order to work correctly on all headlights. if you want the whole inside to appear black you need to get the smoked black lenses so that the lens itself is black.. the inside cannot be all black.. these lenses are very nice I am very happy with my purchase and I'm sure you will bet too if you seaide to purchase... smoked lenses tend to decrease your visibility.. so think carefully before you buy smoked lenses because of that.

Yes. The tinting is that "smoke" sun glasses. They do not work well at night, however.

The lens is clear. I've talked with Cooper customer service about the cracking lenses. I was told that some of the lenses, if not milled exactly to specs, can crack. She was very helpful and sent me a replacement light. Hopefully the problem with the lenses has been solved.

They are white. Cree Diodes are yellow but when illuminated they are pure white. I love mine!!!! I recommend getting them
