Headlight covers
« on: 23 April 2008, 13:26 »
What are your opions of these . My car came with them , the dealer said "they are cheaper to replace than a £200 unit" , but I feel they dont look so good . What do you think , should I remove them or keep them on? Anyone else use the ? Thanks all

Not appropriate for Xenons. My dealer would not fit them - due to extra heat generated.

Pleased actually - didn't really like them but part of protection kit, so I got a refund :smiley:

I saw these at the dealers yesterday and thought they looked  :sick:

I used to fit these to most cars I had, but found them ugly and a pain to keep clean. In my 17 years of driving I've never smashed a headlight through driving. When headlight lenses were made of glass I suppose they made sense.

Hey

In my opinion they look terrible. Are these the ones you are talking about? You can sort of see them on the right hand side light.



Excuse the pic. Its a random R32 that was parked next to the pub at my school  :undecided:
