Headlight covers
Headlight Covers are aftermarket modifications made from a variety of materials (e.g., metal, polycarbonate, ABS plastic or self-adhesive vinyl film) which are applied over the headlamps of a new or used car in order to reduce the percentage of light transmitted, to tint the color of the light transmitted and/or to protect the lenses from stone chips, bug splatters, and minor abrasions. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.motorera.com/dictionary/he.htm )〕
==Wartime Origins of Headlight Covers==
During World War II civil and military authorities often enforced brownout and blackouts which restricted the use of lights on transports and passenger vehicles in order to make detection by aerial reconnaissance and bombers more difficult. Blackouts (turning off lights) and brownouts (limiting light emissions by way of hoods and masks) were enforced in cities and coastal areas as protection against the night-time aerial attacks in both Axis and allied countries. One of the first civilian examples of headlight covers was produced in NSW, Australia by the Read family dairy. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://history.lakemac.com.au/page-local-history.aspx?pid=1085&vid=20&tmpt=narrative&narid=3562 )〕
