NO Mac, yours are BACOFOIL - these are the PROPER JOB like what I was talking to you about

Is this sandwich wrap aswell? if so we can deduce that sandwich wrap in america is around a third the price of it over here?

that looks very good i must say.

 

Looks like they're having a go in Thailand too, seem to be sticking with the silver paint rather than the bacofoil method though :-

Would this makes the lights brighter due to reflections ?

 

Can this be done easily ?

IMO doing this will not make the headlights any brighter - if you look at the beam path it doesn't touch the sides so how can it???????

Surely some light will fall on the sides and be reflected out of the housing which wouldn't otherwise !!!!

 

Come on duffhead, it's not difficult to understand !!

 

 

hehehe - I never knew light could fall

 

Seriously though - in the dark, put your headlights on - you will see that the beam hits the glass - none 'spills' out onto the outer plastic hence no reflective covering. And before you come back and say but my housing lights up too, that is caused by reflection off the inside of the glass NOT beam 'spill'

 

HTH

Absolutely, any improvements in light output are from better electrical connections and brighter bulbs.
