It's a shame theres no easy way to adjust them in a Rxv body. Here's another idea without the eyebrow "duh" look. I'm not too sure how well the electricky dimmer will play with whatever voltage regulator is integrated in the headlights themselves. I haven't tried this stuff on headlights to see how much it would dim, it seems more aimed for "blacked out tail light" look. Also not sure how removable it is. Just an idea to test (spray a light layer on another piece of clear plastic first). I have always found the aftermarket led RXV headlights to be not bright enough compared to OEM. I have only used them on carts that weren't "everyday neighborhood transport" vehicles, ones that would rarely ever be used at night. Tried a set of legit HID bulbs in a Rxv headlight housing, it was gonna melt it (chrome was peeling), but dang it was bright..

That spray on "dimmer" must be very popular. I know a lot of people that seem to be very dim.

LOL! It's for the lenses, not spraying in a bag & huffing.

Bought resistors....nada. Bought a rotating dimmer switch made for led lights...nada

Went to autozone...bought a can of black lense tint. Cleaned lenses....sprayed on 3 coats BINGO...much better and no complaints from oncoming drivers and I can see the road just fine at 42mph !!

Many Thanks to all who responded...

I got tired of blinding people when we are camping and ran across this older thread. I will be trying the following tonight. I picked up two 3” fermco rubber pipe caps at lowes. About $5 each. Discard the hose clamps. I cut a half moon in each. They fit snuggly around aftermarket headlights as shown in the pics below. Push in pull out ease of install and removal. They should be 50% dimmer. We’ll see (pun).

Edit: And now I see this is in the ezgo section.
