Found an interesting photo from KR2K.
What did they use for the cover on the scanner so it wouldn't look clear?
It does look like they at least used a lower wattage bulbs.

Judging by the pattern on the lense, it looks like a tail light cover
or a third brakelight lense of some kind. Dulled it right down.
and personally, I thought the eye ball was stupid.

I agree. Not only did K.I.T.T. never have that, but his scanner always acted as his "eyes." So there's no reason for the eye ball. But then again they did show a stock Firebird steering wheel and a weird pipe in the crate full of parts, too. Either they didn't know or think any fans would notice what parts K.I.T.T. was supposed to have.

The red eye reminds me of Hal.

I thought the scanner was just for KITT to view things forward and to use to analize objects... I guess they wanted KITT to be able to "actually see inside the vehicle", hence what the scanner wasn't suppose to be able to do....

Thye did say Michael stayed with the foundation until 1990 maybe RC3 and Bonnie left,Kitt had a few changes made during the unshown years of 85-90.

Since they dug KITT out of a heap, perhaps it's fair to assume that they couldn't find some parts for him to activate and function properly so they got the "eye" as a substitute part?
I go with that theory just to keep things in order.
