That picture makes them look much better than they are, head-on it looks worse, it looks like the power of the lights has somehow scorched the lens, im sure its on the inside, im thinking of letting it get a little worse & then doing the lens replacement for £140

This is how bad my drivers side is even after sanding and polishing.

Do you think its on the inside ? i'm sure mine is, it sort of mirror's the beam of the lights.

That's why I bought lenses to replace.
Used headlights have same problem Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Tapatalk |
any drama replacing them ? i've seen video's on youtube, looks easy enough.
|
not as easy. It's just tedious because you can cut stuff up and screw it up.
|
Not super easy to replace. Getting the headlights out is a challenge, and then removing the lens is tedious. The results are worth the effort though.

So turns out what I had on my drivers side headlights was crazing. I didn’t sand it down enough and the original clear coat was failing.
So I went down to 240 all the way to 5000 grit and finished it off with plastiX: https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...85c7130d99.jpg I’ll be coating it with meguiars headlight spray. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |
Nice, hell of an improvement ! could you feel anything on the outside ? mine look to me as if the bulb is somehow scorching the inside, but I used to have a Volvo XC90 that i though was marked on the inside, sanded it anyway & it came up perfect.

No I thought mine was from the inside as well because you couldn’t feel with the hand either. Thought they were stress cracks.
Mine took more aggressiveness grits due to the fact I had clear coated it from my previous attempt and was hard getting all that off first. I initially tried with 600 grit but wasn’t getting anywhere and kept going down until I noticed the crazing was almost completely gone. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |
