What I would like to know is will Smoke Lamin-X not have the same type of result as veil.

No.
^ Like the man said.
No.
The reasoning is much the same as that for the use of "smoked" headlamp covers, as discussed:

What if I use clear Lamin-X for protection and Veil the Lamin-X for laser protection ?
No. Reducing reflected light to a police laser gun isn't necessarily done by reducing visible light. Lidar guns detect reflected infrared light therefore it's by reducing light in the IR spectrum which humans can't see that can reduce the effectivity of laser speed guns especially with a jammer.
BTW don't rely on Veil for laser protection.
Unfortunately, treating the current-generation overlay films with VEIL has led to less-than favorable results:

I have smoked headlight covers. Which will be best, Veil on the outside or inside? I read it does not work well on the plastic so I would prefer the inside.
I have done no studies myself, so this is strictly theoretical, based upon my understanding of physics, and what Veil Guy has said about it all.
That said, Veil is to retard the IR reflectance of your exterior surfaces. If the exterior surfaces are not covered, Veil cannot do that. Coating the inside will only retard IR reflectance from the inside of the housing, which is a separate source. Remember, each component of the system reflects (the lens, the reflector), not just the system as a whole. So while Veil to the inside would help, it would reason to be less effective than Veil on the outside. And then there's the issue of lamp assembly heat that close to Veil without plastic between it. I'd be afraid to see what that results in.
