Message	I will be talking with the guy more over/after the holidays. But from what i got from him so far, the results of the process he uses will result in 95% light efficiency as opposed to our glass being much less. I believe he was saying the oem glass could be around 80% or less due to the fact that the way they made glass in the '90s wasn't as good as today's standards. I can try to get further clarification on this. I'll talk to him about how the plastic will handle the winter, but I do know that he said (in concern to summer temps.) even the lesser quality of the materials recommended have a max heat range of over 200 degrees which would make it safe for the oven and setting outside on a hot summer day. The frost may be a small compromise, but that will go away once the lamp warms up just like all other cars.
