Some rearview and side mirrors in cars are self-dimming and will automatically darken to minimize the glare from someone else’s high beams or bright lights.
The first auto headlights were invented in the 1880s and were made using acetylene and oil, similar to old gas lamps. This provided rudimentary lighting, but because both acetylene and oil were so expensive at the time, the technology could not be improved upon—not until 1898 when electric headlamps were invented.
Cloudy or dim headlights can be the result of old plastic covers, UV damage to the covers or old bulbs that are losing power and brightness
