Poor Man's Tinted Windows

I guess they tried black paper on KARR before perfecting the Tinted Windows on KITT:

This is when KARR is driving by himself near the end of the episode before flying off the cliff.

Thats thier jump car. You can tell by the leaf spring
suspension on the front. P{robably tried to tint it out
(poorly) to hide the fact that there is no interior in it
and all the roll bar stuff.

i always noticed some odeties in that car... primarily it looks like the door isnt closed properly or something and the window is outside of the t-top weatherstripping...

speaking of TDR has anyone noticed KITT has a huge dent in his hood during the last scene with him going head on twords KARR?

And, to think, the real tinting windows effect is now possible...and has been for years. I saw the stuff in an old Edmond's Scientific catalog.
