Default Clearing Headlights

I've heard of people doing it on Civics, but is it possible to chisle the film off the inside of an Integra Headlight for a crisper brighter look to the light? I did the 9005 conversion and want to make the most out of my $25/piece Silverstars.

Your headlights are already clear. Are you talking about the 3 lines on the inside of the plastic cover over the projector lens? Removing this isn't going to change anything. Removing the prismatic pattern on a prismatic headlight will greatly reduce its light output. Just look at any euro clear corner or bumper lens for any car compared to the stock one w/ prismatic pattern. Stock is much brighter.

Nah, I thought there was a film on the inside of the plastic/glass (whatever it is) that if you heat it up and chip it out, it makes them a lot clearer. Hmm, must be a Civic thing. Oh well, thanks anyway, I'll just start savin up for HID's.
