Hawkeye headlights.
My headlights are cloudy and I know I can get them buffed clear but I'd rather new lights then keep having to 'clean' them
the kicker is I don't fancy paying £600 for a set of lights when all that is wrong is the lense. Is there anyway anyone knows where I can order just the clear lense? https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...27913574aa.jpg |

I had my Hawkeye Headlights polished and got them covered with clear 3M vinyl wrap with UV protection. Job done. I paid someone to do it locally. 60 quid fitted. If the wrap turns yellow just peel off and reapply new wrap. I will have sold the car by then though. Do it yourself for much cheaper.
Yellow/cloudy headlights really spoil the look of the car. If you buy cheap copies they will turn yellow much quicker than OEM so pointless |
they suffer in the same way that ALL plastic lenses suffer..............new ones will have the same issue given time / use

I really dont want to have to keep buffing them but having a clear coat onto to help will keep the costs down.
I'm hoping subaru will see it as a waste and list the lense as a part to buy. |
