If we're going with crank windows, please Slate go retro and use good 'ole 7" sealed beam GLASS globe headlamps. Like the ones from GE that every 1960's and 1970's car had. Cheap to replace and they'll NEVER glaze over like most every modern plastic aero headlamp does after 5 years.

Heck, make it a personalization item to go either rectangular or round.

Hard pass - horrible lighting, massively power inefficient, generally ugly. I would love to see a real glass lens tho. HID generally has that covered.


The "lenses" on my 16 year old Honda go milky about every 3 years - 10 minutes with a buffer and some toothpaste powder and they're clear as glass again (and minty-fresh). Not a huge deal for me.

Personally I would like to see round halo headlights as an add-on option. It would create a G-wagon or Bronco sport look. :)

Plastic weighs less. Any reduction in weight increases range.
