When I did mine, I was told by numerous people that they could not see my tail lights in the day time. ALMOST got rear ended twice. Sanded mine off and reapplied just a TOUCH of tint. It's better now.

I got some brighter bulbs. Smile You can see these quite well, even at night (I just had dad take it for a spin while I followed).

Some people go overboard for sure, though.

It's a LITTLE bit darker than I wanted, but I sprayed the second lens a little heavier than the first, so I just rolled with it and gave the other a misting coat to even them out.

Still easy to see for my bad eyes, so I figure anyone with normal vision shouldn't have a problem.

I did the cornering lights too, since they don't appear to do anything on a Caprice. I like this look a lot:

Yeah, they look good.

This will have to suffice for now... lol

I find that a light coat, giving the lights a "smoked" appearance actually helps to improve the visibility of the brake lights during the day. When the sun is out, it can often be hard to tell when a red-lensed light is on. If your light is a bit darker, it provides more contrast between when the lights are on and off. Obviously, if you go too dark, you loose that benefit as light output is decreased.

Mine are really dark but found that brighter bulbs really work well, and can still be clearly seen during the day

I saw Roo's wagon about a week or two ago with these lights. They look pretty dark but following him, I had no problem seeing when he hit the brakes (front of the car dips). Seriously though, you could see them fine in the south Florida sun.

Although I guess it's GTS (sure looks like an "O" in the logo to me... lol)

It's a stock photo, but those are the ones for our cars.
