I have looked at several pics of the vision blocks. Some look to be clear and some really dark looking almost black looking. I read to that they are not a transparent color. Just needing to no what is correct.

I was always under the impression the vision blocks were a green tinted glass.
Thats how I painted my one anyway.
Hope this helps.

The armored glass vision blocks had a slight light green appearence. They were not tinted, just very thick glass. The dark appearence could be seeing the interior of the vehicle through the blocks.
